Failing Chemistry

[Intro]
[Verse]
Scribbling logos on the page
Breaking out of this metal cage
Chemistry is just a bore
Walking out the classroom door
Mom says I’m a total mess
Stressing out for every test
I just want to play guitar
And drive a beaten-up car
[Pre-Chorus]
Scuffed up Vans on the floor
Slamming shut the bedroom door
Got a flier in my pocket
Ready like a silver rocket
[Chorus]
Turn the volume up to ten
I won’t ever fit back in
We’re the kings of basement floors
Breaking all the locked-up doors
Yeah we’re loud and we’re free
That’s the only way to be
[Post-Chorus]
Whoa-oh, we’re never coming back
Whoa-oh, we’re off the beaten track
[Verse]
Black paint on my fingernails
Chasing all the vinyl sales
Loitering by the neon lights
Starting up the summer fights
They say I’m wasting every day
But I love living life this way
I don't need a degree
To be what I want to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Scuffed up Vans on the floor
Slamming shut the bedroom door
Got a flier in my pocket
Ready like a silver rocket
[Chorus]
Turn the volume up to ten
I won’t ever fit back in
We’re the kings of basement floors
Breaking all the locked-up doors
Yeah we’re loud and we’re free
That’s the only way to be
[Bridge]
One day we’ll be on the stage
Turning over a brand new page
No more small town parking lots
Connecting all the hidden dots
Just a guitar and a dream
Louder than a sonic scream
[Verse]
Crumpled paper in my fist
Names of bands that don’t exist
Strip mall shadows getting long
Writing out my favorite song
They can keep their nine to five
This is how I feel alive
[Breakdown]
No more rules
No more schools
Just the sound
Of the underground
[Chorus]
Turn the volume up to ten
I won’t ever fit back in
We’re the kings of basement floors
Breaking all the locked-up doors
Yeah we’re loud and we’re free
That’s the only way to be
[Post-Chorus]
Whoa-oh, we’re never coming back
Whoa-oh, we’re off the beaten track
Whoa-oh, we’re never coming back
Whoa-oh, we’re off the beaten track
[Outro]
