Lyrics:
Verse 1
I could not fit in I was the one who got caught,
I was the one who got realized I was the one who got dropped.
Shut out banished and locked away,
The knife that did me in I carry to this day.
Chorus
Rejected,
Rejected,
Crossing bridges in the land of the forgotten.
Rejected,
Rejected.
Verse 2
I could not fit in I was the one who got caught,
I was the one who got realized I was the one who got dropped.
Distrust existed that I never saw,
Deep seated distrust I was a victim of.
Chorus
Rejected,
Rejected,
Crossing bridges in the land of the forgotten.
Rejected,
Rejected.
Bridge
Unspoken among the more privelaged or the so called,
I was not good enough not good enough at all.
At first outta lonliness I tried to conform,
But all that bullshit just left me all alone,
Left me all alone yeah!
Outro
Rejected!
Rejected!

Rejected!
Rejected!
Rejected!
Rejected!
Rejected!

| Well it doesn't seem like this is about being rejected because he's punk specifically. Rather I think he's talking about being from a lower socio-economic class, or otherwise having a personality that doesn't fit in with the world of the upper class, or with those with white-collar aspirations who mimic the mannerisms of the upper class (with strict dress codes, speech rules, behaviour codes, etc). Punks are one example of a group of people who often have personalities and general behaviours and lifestyles that make it almost impossible for them to fit into any social niche that will give them any sort of economic success or mainstream acceptance. There are many other types of people who also have this problem and who find themselves perpetually marginalised despite their desires and efforts to conform... They just can't, they always retain an appearance of being "sketchy" or "ghetto" or something of the sort that causes more successful people to distrust them. Um, in other words... It's about not fitting in. :) The "distrust" and being "unspoken among the priviledged (ie ignored?)" and being just "not good enough" makes me think that he can't move up in the (mainstream) world. The part where he says he was the one who got caught, dropped, etc makes it sound like he's being negatively singled-out in a workplace (ie caught doing something wrong, fired), or possibly that he just can't behave in a way that doesn't get him in trouble. | |

| i feel what both of you are sayen. and i can relate to this song b/c i know (as a fellow punk) i have been rejected b/c i am the unknown. and i even tried to "fit in" once. it didnt work. so i made some friends that were like me. and its all good now. but i still get a lil deppressed and mad when i remember being rejected b/c, as the line "The knife that did me in I carry to this day " says,it always will be with you and it will never go away. katie | |
