[Verse 1]
Today's the day that we start this war
Make up your mind and decide what you are fighting for
You still have so much left to learn about
The decisions you make, be it so hard to break
If you can't make room for raising the stakes
You'll find yourself exposed to the fallout
And in a drawn-out series of undeniable mistakes
The perfect punch to a perfect line

[Chorus]
I'm not gonna make it
Tonight's not good for me, it's true
But not for the reasons you might think
Cause I've got better things to do

[Verse 2]
Well have you ever loved so much that you'd kill for it?
I'd kill for this
From the bottom of the barrel to the tip of my tongue
Feeling old but we're still so young
Because we are the ones that you're searching for
We're causing all the trouble, only looking for more
Does someone carry on with a heart of gold?
Feeling young but we're getting older every time I turn around
The perfect place at the perfect time
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna make it
Tonight's not good for me, it's true
But not for the reasons you might think
Cause I've got better things to do
I'm not gonna make it
Tonight's not good for me, it's true
But not for the reasons you might think
Cause I've got better things to do

[Breakdown]
(This is an outrage)
Today's the day that we start this war
(This is an outrage)
Make up your mind and decide
(This is an outrage)
This is an outrage, I'm so disgusted
(This is an outrage)
Take a look, we swear it's running out
Why can't you see

[Bridge]
So listen up, if you still feel like I still feel
Then rise up, it's so far gone

[Chorus]
I'm not gonna make it
Tonight's not good for me, it's true
But not for the reasons you might think
Cause I've got better things to do
