[Verse 1] Slamming ourselves speeding into credit card walls Mindlessly traipsing suicide through shopping malls Drilling pharmaceutical poison holes in our heads Signing up for candy we can't eat until we're dead Filling up on coffee breaks until we buy new pants Reading lying newspapers we fill ourselves with rants Then going to the sweaty gyms to work off all the shame And putting ourselves down again because we are to blame [Chorus] We are adults We are not children anymore We are adults We speak, never listen, till our heads are on the floor [Verse 2] Toxify our souls with stress until we turn hostile And put another bullet in the gun of self-denial Insurance bill infections climb majestic picket fences Suddenly we only give to even our expenses We walk the streets perpetually entwined without desires We beat our chests all ape-like in the sexy moonlit hours Strip ourselves of truth until we can't see past our fears Drop bombs of fences to the earth, ignore each other's tears [Chorus] We are adults We are not children anymore We are adults We speak, never listen, till our heads are on the floor We speak, never listen, till our heads are on the floor We speak, never listen, till our heads are on the floor [Post-Chorus] Childhood is just as juvenile as adulthood Without the ego At least a child knows it's a child [Chorus] We are adults We are not children anymore We are adults We speak, never listen, till our heads are on the floor We speak, never listen, till our heads are on the floor We speak, never listen, till our heads are on the floor
