[Verse 1] Boots on the floorboards Chain on the sink You want my name You want my blink Tin can alley Moon on the curb They take what they want Then call it "order" [Pre-Chorus] I know that grin I know that door Every clean promise Covers a war [Chorus] Against the system Against the system We bite back hard We bite back hard Against the system Against the system Hands in the air Then we kick the bars (Against the system) [Verse 2] Paper on paper Stamps and a lie They sell you the cage Then ask you to buy Glass in the gutter Mud on my jeans We learn in the dark What freedom means [Pre-Chorus] I know that grin I know that name Same old machine Different game [Chorus] Against the system Against the system We bite back hard We bite back hard Against the system Against the system Hands in the air Then we kick the bars (Against the system) [Bridge] Count the bruises Count the rent Count the reasons We won't bend Beat by beat We make our stand No more strings No more hand [Final Chorus] Against the system Against the system We bite back hard We bite back hard Against the system Against the system Burn your mask We know your scars (Against the system) (Against the system)
