Am I right or am I wrong?
Do I have to leave or do I belong - here?
I always thought the things I do are strong
I'm sorry for that all I got is this song - here!
Got nothing to lose, lost all my faith in it
If that's the way it is I think I don't fit

All the fire inside my chest was heading at the wrong address
I wasted years, I wasted tears
But all I had was loneliness
There's no more blue inside of me
I know what's worth it and what's not
I won't throw my best in front of thieves
'Cause pain is what I got

I quit - with everything
I never wanted to be part of me
I quit - they're tryin' to press my heart down
Closer to the ground now
I quit - with everything
I never wanted to be controlling me
I quit - and it feels so bad inside
That rock 'n roll's dead!

Does anybody out there hear my cry?
Does anybody out there care if I die inside? (cause I die)
Something has left the house I see!
And something came in
That makes me leave tonight!
Yes, Charlie Brown has finally left the field
But I'm sure that he's still never giving yield!
(He fights his own fight)

Raw people, they rule the world
There's no sense for the silent world
Their symphony sounds oh so bad
And everyone joins in to that
You're right I'm down, oh I feel down
But I don't think I've lost like you
'Cause everything that I once had I still have,
Yes I do!

I quit - with everything
I never wanted to be part of me
I quit - they're tryin' to press my heart down
Closer to the ground now
I quit - with everything
I never wanted to be controlling me
I quit - and it feels so bad inside
That rock 'n roll's dead!

Rock 'n' roll's dead
