    Story Behind the Song
    We have to prove ourselves everytime we play... even to our own fans. No ever knows what to expect at one of our shows (especially from our appearance), but when the fans "get it," it's a rewarding journey for everyone. In the meantime, this a song we dedicate to those of you who shut your eyes and close your ears even before the first note is played, thus promoting prejudice even in music. Our fingers are raised.

    Lyrics
    White shirt with your own blood
    I know it hurts when someone knocks you down
    A push from every passerby, standard city-life
    A casualty of being unremarkable
    But the word is out on you

    Saving all the shout-outs for your friends…
    Flicking off the ones who said:

    Chorus:
    "well you're nothing in this place
    and no one knows your name"
    they tag you as another zero
    what's better than revenge is when a loser wins.
    You leave them a finger up in the air

    2nd:
    Glory is not without its salad days
    Looking back; don't let it change what you like on your bread, or the love you have.
    Once one, you drank out of your paper cup collecting your dust.
    You're so unremarkable.
    You hear another say that:

    Repeat chorus

    Saving all the shout-outs for my friends.
    Because they're the ones who made me feel like

    I am something in this place.
    You better know my name.
    I'm proud to be another zero.
    The sweetest of revenge is when a loser wins.
    I'm giving a finger for those who said that:

    Repeat chorus

    Jack Lee (ASCAP 2003)
