Story behind the song
We wanted to write a full out ska song, because we didnt have one yet. So we started writing music, and after that I wrote some lyrics late at night in my bed. Well after a few months of ignoring the song, I finally came back to it and realized that the music sucked, but the lyrics were great. So I kept the lyrics and we completely re-did the music to the song. As you can tell after a quick listen, it has much improved.
Lyrically, the song is about trying to distinguish yourself from the media and from society, and being a free-thinking independant. If that means that you have to be stranded all alone, then so be it
Lyrics
I don't want to go
Yet I don't want to stay
Don't want to be alone
But still stay the fuck away
Don't want to be a follower
To everything I see
Do things the way I want to
Follow my own beliefs
The media is the pied piper for the kids today
Put them all into a trance, then they lined up all dazed
Tell what to listen to, eat, drink, breathe, wear and buy
Take away their life and money, don't ask how and why
So I'll stand stranded all by myself
But still better off than everyone else
Cause I think for myself
I don't want to wake up
So I never go to sleep
I've been getting fed up
Yet the world's taking a leap
Physically I'm lazy
Mentally I'm still the same
But at least I think for myself
Don't play into media's game
Where will our generation be in years to come
I guarantee the majority will be on streets as bums
Wasted youth on seedless fruits, it was for a lost cause
And the media shows no signs of taking a pause
So I'll stand stranded all by myself
But still better off than everyone else
Cause I think for myself
I'd rather be stranded then conform into the group
Yah, I'd rather be stranded then conform into the group
I'd rather be stranded then conform into the group
Yah, I'd rather be stranded then conform into your racist fucking group
