It didn't happen for you
No one wants to hear the truth
Coming from three political queers
Back in the punk rock blues
So you break up the band
And leave us all in tow
And now we got to figure out where to go

G A
                   D A G
Caught it at a rave (Did it fuel your fascination?)
Saw it on my TV (Did it lighten up your load?)
And every fucking DJ (Did you feel affiliated?)
Was telling me I'm free (Like your really had at all)
Free to be a loser (Your taking crosses too high)
Free to be a trend (Were the lights too bright?)
Free to be a backlash over and over and over again 
(Was it all over somehow)
G A
                               D A G
You say I'm losing inspiration
One band at a time
Cuz I got know that someone
Somewhere out there
Is singing for our side

I come up share the motor and the blues
What we built together we shared that too
And the wind may come and the rain may fall
But we stand together or we don't stand at all
A                                 G
And I say "where are going you to now?"
Now that the door is closed
G
(Where are you going to now?)

                           D A G
Its the history of survival
Swimming up the stream
Crossing over one dam after another 
Until we get to Rock & Roll Heaven's Gate
G A
(Yeah you)
                    D A G
Caught it at a rave (Did it fuel your fascination?)
Saw it on my TV (Did it lighten up your load?)
And every fucking DJ (Did you feel affiliated?)
Was telling me I'm free (Like your really had at all)
Free to be a loser (You're taking crosses too high)
Free to be a trend (Were the lights too bright?)
Free to be a backlash over and over
Until I get to Rock & Roll Heaven's Gate
