In second grade he got a friend named Sam friends for life good and bad Always in tune never they fought but all that change just over night When a new kid move in to town soon king of class his word made the rules He didn't like Jim not at all and they all follow like a pack of wolfs Friends for life don't mean the same when your in second grade Friends for life ain't worth a dime when you in second grade The teachers turned the other cheek Didn't want to see or didn't want to know He imagines it all, he´s just weak There is no problem at our school Then one day at a field trip Tom kick his ass ripped his shirt His mother was mad, he broke down and cry And told her about his living hell ''Friends for life don't mean the same when your in second grade Friends for life ain't worth a dime when you in second grade There's no problem at our school, it's all just in his head There is no problem at our school, the kids get along just fine There's no problem at our school, it's all just in his head There is no problem at our school, come on see for your self'' With tears in her eyes she called the principal There is no problem not what i´ve I heard It's all in his head, his just insecure He's not doing well ins school you know What do you mean with that she said You should pay more attention to his work Not tell us what to do, it´s just an excuse There is no problem at our school

or every day you claim the streets of fame another one like you will stand in line waiting for the clock to bide its time An army of plastic copies of you You know its its true fame junkies always got something to sell lets face it your last weeks news You know its true They know it too She don't care and he don't care bout you

Make some promises that you have no intention To keep for the ones that count on you In four years, no one will remember So it's safe to spread some more lies Then when you make them fools believe You just have to play it safe And guard your own interests That's the way it works, that's the way they work Welcome to 1984, were the people have no will If you ain't got nothing to hide there's no need to be afraid He want to now what you been up to, Maybe you got a friend doing hish-hush Or worse maybe your own children, A computer full of bullshit billboard songs So you see it's in the government's interest To prevent such an awful crime Such an awful crime Welcome to 1984, where the people have no will Politicians are sold and bought there's a price for every thought Welcome to 1984 where the people have no will Freedom of speech is the lie we're fed, while they strip us down to our last thread

will the time set me straight live in a world that i hate got a hard time to relate cause I'm a monster we´re just a small part of the big machine just like puppets on a mad mans scene oh i think it is so obscene but i'm a monster And all the kids can say their piece But the word of truth is just for lease say what you want, but make sure it fits the script i wanna be free without this chain but the state of the rich continues to gain is it weird to feel this pain? like i'm the monster Our lives are govern by the interest rate we live in a world with an expired date Madness rules the public debate And I´m the monster? I try so hard to get a grip Im afraid that my feet will slip I can´t believe my life gone

She's got the world on her shoulders when she runs She's got the desperation in her steps And he will die for her love he will sacrifice their son And he will wait until she comes with the sun ''Help me find my way it would be nice to know how to pray'' She's hallucinating She's so cold the ice is tearing down her coat Here come the sun, here comes salvation right in time Oh what a girl he is well and and in his prime ''Help me find my way it would be nice to know how to pray'' I see a crack Is it mine, or will have to wait I See a crack is it mine, or might i've gone to far Might I've gone to far ''Help me find my way it would be nice to know how to pray''

I'm drifting away in this mindless state Where are you? I've tried to find the answer but its nowhere to be found '' Oh, I don't want to play no more'' Losing the ground with the world i once found so perfect What can i do? I'm nobody but i try I guess it all comes with age I would like to say its all okay '' I don't want to play no more'' As all the people seems to stay at the same phase well I'm different i have change I don't know were i belong ''I don't want to play no more'' But don't feel sorry for me 'Cause I'm not
