Menzingers, The - I Was Born Lyrics






Well, I was born but I forgot it,
We left our marks in drying cement,
Well, hey mister don’t you doubt it,
I was born but I’ve seemed to forgot it.

And I was raised inside a bible,
And I was living off life support,
Unilateralist! Single mattress!
Guilty Friday nights remind me that,

Sometimes I feel like I should have said no,
I feel like I should have said,
Sometimes I feel like I should have said no,
I feel like I should have said no.

And I met your savior over an altar,
Well I’m at your funeral, I’m at the slaughter
And I met your savior over an altar,
Well I’m at your funeral, I’m at the slaughter

With trigger fingers, catch your breath, and lay ‘em down slow,
Oh my God it’s been far too long,
Send my thoughts to the firing squad.
Oh my God it’s been far too long,
Send my thoughts to the...

Sometimes I feel like I should have said no,
I feel like I should have said,
Sometimes I feel like I should have said no,
I feel like I should have said no.

    what's the argument about? I like both ADTR and The Menzingers .oh and this song calms me down so let's all calm down and enjoy the music :D

  9. T.... W....

    You guys are fucking lame

  10. C.... P....

    There was never a more true statement.

  11. J.... H....

    ADTR used to be good. It started going downhill after Homesick.

  12. S.... '....

    Hey guys we're a new punk band from the DC area. We're really really into The Menzingers and think other fans of them should check us out.

    check out our channel. thanks!

  13. z.... ....

    or maybe he likes punk sounding shit and hates that new posthardcore metal core trendy shit. put your thinking cap on.

  14. S.... ....

    How is ADTR even related to The Menzingers? Just shut the fuck up and enjoy the music.

  15. w.... ....

    I agree! But talk about punk whoring.

    Bet you have every punk boy wrapped around your finger, in a blue dress.

  16. J.... F....

    Why are you talking about ADTR this is a menzingers video. But everyone's a hypocrite so I'll add my two cents. ADTR sucks now. But I liked for those who have heart good album.

  17. K.... H....

    I love both bands because I actually have an open mind to music. Is that okay?

  18. K.... ....

    This guys are awesome :D

  19. G.... ....

    570 music scene

  20. M.... D....

    My bad... Cafe Metro @ :55?

  21. M.... D....

    Cafe Metropolis @1:55? RIP :(

  22. M.... L....

    Lets be honest. You probably only like The Menzingers because they dont sound like every other band. But you hate A Day To Remember because they are wildly successful.

  23. C.... H....

    will definitely see them if I go to Hevy Fest :)

  24. j.... ....

    Yah their recent album got universal acclaim and sold pretty damn well too, they are on their way to the mainstream

  25. T.... ....

    Sick video!

    For more punk rock, watch The Strange Times TV!!

  26. d.... ....

    Have you seen any music blogs or punk blogs AOTY charts yet? this bands album from last year is on the top of nearly all of them for punk.

  27. J.... R....

    Maybe if it was 98

  28. K.... U....

    this is nice

  29. n.... ....

    The bassist is simply delicious.

  30. p.... ....

    werid.. im going for both, there both amazing

  31. T.... ....

    Is that the electric factory????

  32. L.... M....

    Unfortunately I'm gonna have to see these guys when I see Propagandhi. Maybe I'll go drop acid in the parking lot during their set.

    L.... M....

    I hope you OD'ed 🤞

  33. S.... T....

    I cant wait dude.

  34. D.... ....

    looking forward to seeing you guys with Pennywise Aug 25th in Brisbane!!

  35. D.... G....

    Yeah beer companies a going to pay superbowl commercial money for punk band's videos

  36. N.... P....

    still too good.

  37. C.... B....

    I'm there little sister! remember me from nassau coliseum!!

  38. M.... 9....

    philly What

  39. B.... C....

    I fucking love these guys

  40. A.... ....

    love the Menzingers, but i think their starting to sound a bit like their ripping off The Flatliners more recent stuff. And i mean, The Flatliners sound like their ripping off Hot Water Music

  41. A.... L....

    So excited that they are finally getting recognized. To the people freaking out are you kidding me? Shouldn't you just be happy that they are getting what they deserve? Either way it doesn't make a difference. :)

  42. W.... C....

    scranton represent

  43. C.... G....

    To all hipsters....Listen to these guys now so you can be like "ohh ya I liked them way before all yall". Also, please take off your knit hats inside...

  44. J.... K....

    2:25 Ryan Dunn?

  45. B.... ....

    @fd95117 lol 9 months ago. You are obviously incorrect. 39,000 views. They aren't bad, but sound like Dropkick Murphys in pop mode! hahahaha. Just messing with you, nothing personal promise. :)

  46. J.... C....

    why wasnt this their closer?

  47. j.... ....

    @fd95117 their new album was very radio friendly and catchy as well, toured with bands like rise against and a day to remember, these guys got a future ahead of them now, if this doesnt get their exposure out their then i will lose what little faith i have in the music industry currently

    we need bands like this in the mainstream to replace the trash we got now, and seeing how a shit ton of talent is getting noticed the future looks good

  48. N.... ....

    @denglish5 You being down with that crew of flunkies and *cough punk rawk cough* SELLOUTS is more offensive than baby squirrels frolicking in a steaming pile of Santorum. Go swing your life away, hipster douche.

  49. d.... E....

    @punkska438 haha what did i say that got you so mad? I personally feel almost offended that you would put down RA and ADTR like them cause im actually a really big fan of them.

  50. V.... D....

    @denglish5 Well, a day to remember and Rise Against suck really bad, the only good band would be the Menzingers, so I would miss it. I would have left right after these guys anyway. ADTR sucks ass and Rise Against are total sell outs

  51. M.... ....

    2:17 might be my favorite fill ever

  52. M.... S....

    Some right cheeky bass work.

  53. D.... ....

    Saw them today with Rise Against and A Day to Remember, they were great. If i had known their lyrics as well as i knew the others i would put them right up next to ADTR and Rise Against!

  54. M.... ....

    @denglish5 i saw them yesterday they were amazing

  55. B.... ....

    @denglish5 lmao i saw them at Penn State, all three bands were awesome.

  56. d.... E....

    seeing these guys with a day to remember and Rise Against tomorrow and im fucking sick but i dont give a fuck i wouldnt miss this concert even if my legs fell off

  57. P.... F....

    @XpumpkinheadXhearseX Saw these guys live, and I gotta say I like them a bit more than Title fight.

  58. J.... B....

    they remind me of old british punk

  59. C.... E....

    @XpumpkinheadXhearseX Actually, Title Fight is standing in for The Menzingers on the tour for the shows from April 15 to May 10.

  60. J.... B....

    These guys just got announced as standing in for Title Fight on the Rise Against/ADTR tour. They're no Title Fight, but they're a damn solid group.

  61. S.... M....

    @2:36 butt naked guy

  62. p.... ....

    they sick i saw them 2 times

  63. y.... ....

    @rocker22496 same

  64. l.... c....

    @fd95117
    ...and that they are now touring with Rise Against

  65. T.... ....

    @DrunkenJediFilms I am to I'm seeing them with Rise Against and A day to Remember..... I am really going for Rise Against, but I like ADTR to and the is the first time I listened to them and I love it.

  66. D.... ....

    Fell in love with these guys last year. The store didn't have there music and I respected them enough not to steal it from online.
    Seeing them with Rise Against in February. Can't wait!

  67. P.... ....

    My favourite part of this video is the part in between 0:00 - 2:55

  68. J.... F....

    Saw them at warped yesterday and they rocked i wasnt super familar with there stuff a friend intoduced me a few months back. So i decided to check out there show and WOW! i am officialy a fan.

  74. s.... ....

  75. B.... C....

  76. n.... ....

    Is it just me, or does the combination of the Old Spice commercial at the beginning and the actual Menzingers video make this twice as epic?

  77. b.... ....

    i just discovered this band, and am so glad i found 'em!

  78. N.... S....

    @RoxoGD Sorry man, Peterborough Ontario in Canada. But yeah, shitty you still missed them, hah.

  80. N.... S....

    @EmberleyC Saw 'em the night before you in Peterborough. About 40 people in the place and most of them were clearly teenage girls who thought they'd get an auto-tune IV, haha... but for the few True Believers there, it fuckin' rocked!

  81. C.... E....

    Fucking wicked band, and great song, already seen them with Flaliners in Tornto last month, hoping to see them again some time!

  82. M.... ....
