You don't understand the way we feel
To you, our lives are so unreal
You hope it's just a passing fad
We'll aspire to the lives that you never had
You say that we should not complain
You hear it over and over again
But you don't seem to realize
How uncertain you've made our lives

Criticize everything we do
Chastise what you don't approve
Your life is lies we despise
You can't even look at me in the eyes

You look at us with scornful eyes
To you, our lives are so unwise
You say that you hear everything
But it's obvious you're not listening

Criticize everything we do
Chastise what you don't approve
Your life is lies we despise
You can't even look at me in the eyes

You don't understand, you don't understand!
You don't understand, you don't understand!
You don't understand, you don't understand!
You can't realize, ignorance is in your eyes!
Your truth is just a point of view
Don't care about it or any of you
You think you've made our lives so great
No generation ever had such a fate
You don't understand the way we feel
To you, our lives are so unreal
You hope it's just a passing fad
We'll aspire to the lives that you never had

Criticize everything we do
Chastise what you don't approve
Your life's lies we despise
You just want to make it stop
