You’re riding in a car, heading down a hill
and there are certain flames below.
Would you keep on driving?
Would you keep singing along with the radio?
or would you bail out?
If you were in a plane, behind the controls
and you had never been there before
But you had a parachute
and you’d seen how to use it in the movies,
Would you keep flying or would you jump?
I’m breaking with the patriots
and you should all come with me
I’m breaking with the patriots
because I don’t like bad things.
A flag is just an ad and your hometown is where you’re from
and you would fight when you were young
and you would fight when wrong
Now you’re right and you go along
you sing your song and say your pledge
You dull your edge so you belong
but inside you’re seeing red
If you’re fighting a dragon as you sometimes do
and there was a table of choices beside you
Would you grab the boxing gloves
or maybe the ink pen
or would you go straight for the broadsword?
It’s good to stay and fight
but it’s ok to walk away
I’m breaking with the patriots
and you should all think of coming with me
I’m breaking with the patriots
‘cause just like you, I hate bad things
