Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow dont need today,
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Well Ive never seen us act like this,
Our only hope is the minds of kids,
And theyll show us a thing or two

Our only weapons are the guns of youth,
Its only time before they tighten the noose,
And then the hunt will be on for you

The red flag waving never meant the same
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow dont need today,
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Like the smallest bee packs a sting,
Like a pawn checkmates a king,
Well attack at the crack of dawn

Build a ladder if theres a wall,
Dont be afraid to slip and fall,
Speak for yourself, or theyll speak for you

The red flag waving never meant the same

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow dont need today,
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Like a fire, dont need water
Like a jury, needs a liar
Like riot, dont need order
Like a madman, needs a martyr

We dont need them!

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow dont need today,
When they live in the sins of yesterday

We dont need them!
