Choosing Sides Songtext
von Adam Rubenstein

We brand ourselves exceptional
For how we′ve lost our own free will
We're a thing to marvel at
We′re messengers, proud patriots

Like faithful birds, we form a line
In harmony beneath the sky
We've earned our place among the flock
By sheer design, by common stock

Oh, fireworks erupt so bright
We all go blind, we choose a side
Confetti clouds fill up the skies
With shredded eyes, we choose a side
All things simplified
When we choose a side

These mottos are like drugs
They course throughout our blood
We wait for them to take effect
And soon enough our minds are set


Yeah, history swings back and forth
Familiar voices auto-reverse
We play them back so many times
By now, the message is memorized

Oh, fireworks erupt so bright
We all go blind, we choose a side
Confetti clouds fill up the skies
With shredded eyes, we choose a side
All things simplified
When we choose

At the front of the parade
The fearless are the most afraid
They'll be on your side
If they recognize the story you tell
And they already know it so well, hey

Fireworks erupt so bright
We all go blind, we choose a side
Confetti clouds fill up the skies
With shredded eyes, we choose a side
All things simplified
When we choose a side
