Freak Flag – Ice Nine Kills

We’re taught to be like them
Taught to know our place
We kept the pace but we’re done pretending
A fault line through their fairytale endings

They’ve tried to sell us on convenience and conformity
Those aren’t the measures of the man that I want to be
Rise up if you agree

And let your freak flags fly
We’re all messed up inside
And forced to act like everything’s alright
Wave those freak flags high
Rejected ’til we die
To hell with tomorrow
Just let your freak flags fly tonight

We’re taught to fall in line
Taught to know the rules
We’ve played the fools and we’re over the laughter
They can keep their vapid happily ever-afters

They can’t sell us on convenience and conformity
Those aren’t the properties of people that we want to be
Rise up if you agree

And let your freak flags fly
We’re all messed up inside
And forced to act like everything’s alright
Wave those freak flags high
Rejected ’til we die
To hell with tomorrow
Just let your freak flags fly tonight

Made from a different mold
Stuck in a different skin
We will never back down
We will never fit in
A different breed
Stuck in a different skin
We will never back down
We will never fit in

So let your freak flags fly
We’re all messed up inside
And forced to act like everything’s alright
Wave those freak flags high
Rejected ’til we die
To hell with tomorrow
Let your freak flags fly
We’re all messed up inside
And forced to act like everything’s alright
Wave those freak flags high
Rejected ’til we die
To hell with tomorrow
Just let your freak flags fly tonight
