Keep Your Mouth Shut Lyrics
No one hears what - what you say
No one is there - there for you
But I've got music and I've got friends
Both always by my side
Convictions instilled in me
This is what keeps me alive
You don't know me
Don't know any of us
Don't know what this means
Keep your mouth shut
Try and try - to tear me down
Run and run - run your mouth
But it's you who's lost
In social ills, lust and greeds
This is for the outcasts that never fit
This is all that we need
I don't care what you think of me
I don't hear what you say
You never had it, you never will
Keep your mouth shut and worry about yourself
Keep your mouth shut
No one is there - there for you
But I've got music and I've got friends
Both always by my side
Convictions instilled in me
This is what keeps me alive
You don't know me
Don't know any of us
Don't know what this means
Keep your mouth shut
Run and run - run your mouth
But it's you who's lost
In social ills, lust and greeds
This is for the outcasts that never fit
This is all that we need
I don't hear what you say
You never had it, you never will
Keep your mouth shut and worry about yourself

This is hardcore pride.
Attacking all the people who have to put other people down just to find some sense of equality for themselves. The song is voicing the fact that friends and influencial music is all you need, and when you break someone else down it just shows your own weakness.
According to their live at CBGBs version, this song is aimed at the "internet geek s who like to talk shit and cause drama".
