Lyrics

I wish I could, innovate
And try to stretch your minds
Cause often times, when guys like me
Do that they leave themselves behind
To clean a mess, or to impress
A little bit of everyone
But to innovate, is a mistake
Cause there's nothing new under the sun

Cause we're all getting tired of the media
Cause it tries too hard to make you like something
Cause we're all getting tired of the media
Cause creating something new is just recycling
Wit, wit's all been done before
Yeah we do something to death
Then we dig it up just to do it some more

In all my lines of warning signs
But not all with dead ends
And I'm not sure if the clever words
Will sit well with my friends
But I will not just sit and watch
And me the victim fall
I'll just have to do
What my gut tells me to
And hope that you will buy it all

Cause we're all getting tired of the media
Cause it tries too hard to make you like something
Cause we're all getting tired of the media
Cause creating something new is just recycling
Wit, wit's all been done before
Yeah we do something to death
Then we dig it up just to do it some more
Wit, wit's all been done before
Yeah we do something to death
Then we dig it up just to do it some more

Originality is a ghost town
And it's oh so hard to get to
And when you do, then people start to hate you
You scream what you believe out loud in a crowd
And they will hate you
Cause repetition's just so safe
And repetition's just like prison
And I prefer to be out of place
Cause I'm not really into prison

Wit, wit's all been done before
Yeah we do something to death
Then we dig it up just to do it some more
Cause we're all getting tired of the media
Cause it tries too hard to make you like something
Cause we're all getting tired of the media
Cause creating something new is just recycling
Wit, wit's all been done before
Yeah we do something to death
Then we dig it up just to do it some more
Wit, wit's all been done before
Yeah we do something to death
Then we dig it up just to do it some more
