We Won't Back Down lyrics

We're gonna burn your city,
Gonna bring your system down.
I'm gonna drown my pity,
Turn this to a ghost town,
And when you know there's nothing left,
You're gonna run like all the rest.
Pack your bags and turn your back
On all the friends you had left.

And it's time for us to live, yeah

It's my time,
This is just a declaration of our vows (Whoa)
We won't back down.
It's my time,
This is just your resignation from our lives (Whoa)
We won't back down.

We're gonna drown your ego,
You're the legend no one knows,
You're an honest fake I know (You're an honest fake I know),
So now I drown my pity,
In a pool of sorrow and shame,
Until the day I forget your name

And you gotta let me live, yeah

It's my time,
This is just a declaration of our vows (Whoa)
We won't back down.
It's my time,
This is just your resignation from our lives (Whoa)
We won't back down,
We won't back down.

It's time to forget what makes me sick,
Deep inside of me (deep inside of me)
And it's time to forget what makes me sick,
Deep inside of me, yeah.

(Solo)

And you gotta let me live, yeah

It's my time,
This is just a declaration of our vows (Whoa)
We won't back down.
(Hey hey hey hey [repeated])
It's my time,
This is just your resignation, from our lives (Whoa)
We won't back down
We won't back down

We won't back down
We won't back down.
