This one is from their concept album The Silver Scream where every song is based off of a horror movie.
This song is based off of Devils Rejects.
We're taught to be like them
Taught to know a place
We kept the pace but we're done pretending
We'll fall blind through the fairy tale ending
(ENDING, ENDING)
PRECHORUS 1
They've tried to sell us on convenience and conformity
These are the images of the man that I want to be
Rise up if you agree
CHORUS
And let your freak flags fly
We're all messed up inside
And forced to act like everything's alright
Wave those freak flags high
Rejected till we die
To hell with tomorrow
Just let your freak flags fly tonight
(NIGHT, NIGHT)
We're taught to fall in line
Taught to know the rules
We've played the fools and we're over the laughter
They can't keep us up in happily ever afters
(AFTERS, AFTERS)
PRECHORUS 2
They can't sell us on convenience and conformity
These are the properties of people that we wanna be
Rise up if you agree
CHORUS
And let your freak flags fly
We're all messed up inside
And forced to act like everything's alright
Wave those freak flags high
Rejected till we die
To hell with tomorrow
Just let your freak flags fly tonight
(Tonight x4)
BRIDGE
We form a different mold
Stuck in a different skin
We will never back down
We will never fit in
A different breed
Stuck in a different skin
We will never back down
We will never fit in
CHORUS
So let your freak flags fly
We're all messed up inside
And forced to act like everything's alright
Wave those freak flags high
Rejected till we die
To hell with tomorrow
Let your freak flags fly tonight
And let your freak flags fly
We're all messed up inside
And forced to act like everything's alright
Wave those freak flags high
Rejected till we die
To hell with tomorrow
Just let your freak flags fly tonight
(TONIGHT, TONIGHT)
