every move I make
one step forward, two steps back,
but ain't that the way it goes
isn't that just like it always goes

I feel like a warrior with
no place to attack
hey, ain't that the way it goes
isn't that just like it always goes

and I still see so many people
who can only be what
somebody tells them

we wanna live we wanna live
we wanna wave our flag real high
we wanna live we wanna live
we wanna live and never die
spinnin' wheels busted deals
down in the parking lot
but ain't that the way it goes
isn't that just like it always goes
they break you down
shake you down
take everything you've got
hey, ain't that the way it goes
isn't that just like it always goes

and I still see so many people
who can only be what
somebody tells them

we wanna live we wanna live
we wanna wave our flag real high
we wanna live we wanna live
we wanna live and never die
no we're never gonna die.
we wanna live, we wanna live
we wanna wave our flag real high
real high
alright
we all wanna, we all wanna (let's go!)

Sleepless nights and lonely flights
I feel like an empty page
hey, ain't that the way it goes
isn't that just like it always goes

dead beat in a dead heat
full house with an empty stage
hey, ain't that the way it goes
isn't that just like it always goes

we wanna live we wanna live
we wanna wave our flag real high
we wanna live we wanna live
we wanna live and never die
we all wannna
we all wanna (now we're never gonna die, never gonna die)
we all wanna (now we're never gonna die)
