Summer Holidays Vs. Punk Routine

(album: The Shape Of Punk To Come: A Chimerical Bombination in 12 Bursts - 1998)

I'm tired of losing myself to some stupid childhood dream of what I could have been
Money proves the point and I'm stuck between summer holidays & punk routine
I shoot off a 100 things to remain more sorry than safe, you see
I only get this fucking chance once and I just can't let it be

Well, I'm still certain that what motivates me is more rewarding than any piece of paper could be
Well adjusted & corrupt, all those icons that stole our teenage lust
A scenario of simplicity, a scenario of you and me
A scenario of simplicity, a scenario of you and me

Rather be forgotten than remembered for giving in
Rather be forgotten than remembered remembered for giving in
Rather be forgotten than remembered for giving in
Rather be forgotten than remembered remembered for giving in

We're all tired of dying, so sick of not trying
Scared that we might fail, we'll accomplish nothing
We're all tired of dying, so sick of not trying
Scared that we might fail, we'll accomplish nothing

Not even failure
Not even failure
Not even failure
Not even failure

Rather be forgotten than remembered for giving in
Rather be forgotten than remembered remembered for giving in
Rather be forgotten than remembered for giving in
Rather be forgotten than remembered remembered for giving in
Giving in
Giving in
Giving in
