[Intro]
People gather 'round the house divine
They're picture perfect, so better than mine
And all their lying fixes all their pride
So what's the matter with myself and I?
I want to be a little different
I want to be a symbol, independent life
Gonna live above all the sane below
I've got one million words ready to go

[Chorus]
I'm through with people telling me I'm wrong
I'm sick of listening to the same damn songs
I don't need anyone or anything to be my guide
Just let me do my thing and maybe you could see in time
I want to be a little different
I want to be a symbol, independent life
Gonna live above all the sane below
I've got one million words ready to go

[Verse 1]
Here we go, it's back again
All the people who tell you where and when
You try your best just to please them all
Then you find out what they're standing for
It's ending just like before, nothing is in our control
We take everything we have then we bring out all the other plans
[Pre-Chorus]
I guess it's time to go, there's too much we don't know
It's time to head on out so let's all gear up and lock and load
We've got a war outside our little home
It's time they all see our show

[Chorus]
People gather 'round the house divine
They're picture perfect, so better than mine
And all their lying fixes all their pride
So what's the matter with myself and I?
I want to be a little different
I want to be a symbol, independent life
Gonna live above all the sane below
I've got one million words ready to go

[Verse 2]
She's ready for the battle life
When the time comes, she is gonna fight
She's making plans for the attack
Gotta know just where the enemy's at
She knows the odds do not stack
But she sees something more grand
A bigger meaning to the blood stains that are on her hands

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess it's time to go, there's too much we don't know
It's time to head on out so let's all gear up, get ready to roll
We've got a war outside our little home
It's time to put on our show
[Chorus]
People gather 'round the house divine
They're picture perfect, so better than mine
And all their lying fixes all their pride
So what's the matter with myself and I?
I want to be a little different
I want to be a symbol, independent life
Gonna live above all the sane below
I've got one million words ready to go

[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh, oh no, hit it
All the times we push on through
Still tell us just what to do
Out with old and in with new
Replace us all with lots of you
All the times we push on through
Still tell us just what to do
Out with old and in with new
Replace us all with lots of you

[Chorus]
People gather 'round the house divine
They're picture perfect, so better than mine
And all their lying fixes all their pride
So what's the matter with myself and I?
I want to be a little different
I want to be a symbol, independent life
Gonna live above all the sane below
I've got one million words ready to go
