Better Than Them

This is our town, this is Friday night
 Dressed in our rags and our rage and our best
 Piercing eyes looking for something, anything, just anyone
 Stare across the floors they begin to dance
 Missing all the rhythms and the chosen right steps
 And we laugh and we drink in our corner again
 We're better than them (we're better than them)
 We're better than them (we're better than them)
 Divided we were born, divided we live
 Divided we fall, yeah, divided we die
 Still we tell ourselves over and over again
 We're better than them (we're better than them)
 We're better than them (we're better than them)
 With our hunger and our hatred we all walk this town
 With our fear and our weakness just holding on
 With our doubt and our emptiness and this cold, cold frown
 We got to be so important we'll put the whole damn world down
 And we build the walls that we can hide behind
 And our finest weapon is our poisoned pride
 Here in this town where the jealousies burn
 We're watching you (we're watching you)
 And truth is only what we need it to be
 To bring us survival through each and every day
 Where nowhere is safe and nowhere is home
 Just be cool (be cool)
 And what was she wearing and what did he say?
 Who goes with who and what did they do?
 Yeah, we tell ourselves over and over again
 We're better than them (we're better than them)
 We're better than them (we're better than them)
 With our hunger and our hatred we all walk this town
 With our fear and our weakness just holding on
 With our doubt and our emptiness and this cold, cold frown
 We got to be so important we'll put the whole damn world down
 Divided we were born, divided we live
 Divided we fall, yeah, divided we die
 Still we tell ourselves over and over again
 We're better than them (we're better than them)
 We're better than them (we're better than them)
 We're better than them (we're not like them)
 We're better than them (we're better than them)
 We're better than them (ooo them)
 We're better than them (them)
