Throw Down Lyrics
to be lost in a state of confusion
no sense of direction you can't be found
far from the truth of the slim and shady youth
but it's all the same it's all the same to me
with open arms you embrace abrasive action
you welcome verbal violence your thoughts unsound
you wear the message on your face i'll wipe it off without a trace
'cause i'm all the rage i'm all the rage again
if you could see that it's all the same to me
i can't believe you can mean those things you say
the harder i keep running
the harder i keep running
the more you waste my time
don't look now but your friends are not around
to protect the words they gave you to be just like them
you say the words "fuck you" and yeah i've got a message too
hey we're all the same we're all the same as you
if we can't get along we'll have to find a middle ground
if we can agree that we disagree about the same things we believe to be true
from me to you nothing but messages and paper planes
members only and memories end in the end they end
no sense of direction you can't be found
far from the truth of the slim and shady youth
but it's all the same it's all the same to me
you welcome verbal violence your thoughts unsound
you wear the message on your face i'll wipe it off without a trace
'cause i'm all the rage i'm all the rage again
i can't believe you can mean those things you say
the harder i keep running
the harder i keep running
the more you waste my time
to protect the words they gave you to be just like them
you say the words "fuck you" and yeah i've got a message too
hey we're all the same we're all the same as you
if we can agree that we disagree about the same things we believe to be true
from me to you nothing but messages and paper planes
members only and memories end in the end they end

I like this song a lot. because it reminds me of this boy, who is really like that. And I really like him.
How poignant!
i think this song is about a dude that used to pick on him and how pathetic he was.
dont look now but your friends are not around to protect ehw ords they gave you to be just like them you say the woulds fuck you and yearh i've got a message to hey we'lre all the same wer're all the same as you
i think that is possibly the greatest lyrics in the world. about the stupid fucks that change around other people and try to be do different, but really we're all the same
Possibly Motion City's best. I've seen em twice (can't wait for the third at Warped...) and they closed with this both times. Nothing makes the kids jump like this one.
WOOT!!!! excatly a month before i see them @ warped tour! ( i got my vans ready) lol. this song is i think not just about the kids that used to pick on him but also about the corperate bullies, and bosses that push people around. i think this may be about the in famous Matt in " open the door" ( matt makes his muderous demands full of fumes i take a stand/and its all uphill from here ( at least i hope so)) so that may ahve a connection because the lyrics in this song heavily remind me of that line. you know the little guy who stands up to the bullies to find a fair view of each other on both sides.
I Remembe The First Time I Heard This Song It Reminded Me Of My EX And I Gave Me That I DONT CARE ANYMORE Attitude So Thats Why I lOve This Song
amazing how i see every band that their one big number has hundreds of comments ...and this one...only has 9? this is their best song by far.
and yes, it's about being a kid gettin' picked on and then standing up for himself
