It's getting colder in this ditch where I lie I'm feeling older and I'm wondering why I heard they told her it was tell and live or die I didn't know her, but I know why she lied I didn't know her, but I know why she died You can't say I didn't give it I won't wait another minute We're on our way this time around You can't say I didn't give it I won't wait another minute We're on our way this time around And we won't go down I heard them say that dreams should stay in your head Well, I feel ashamed of the things that I've said Put on these chains and you can live a free life Well, I'd rather bleed just to know why I die You can't say I didn't give it I won't wait another minute We're on our way this time around You can't say I didn't give it I won't wait another minute We're on our way this time around And we won't go down And we won't go down And we won't go down And we won't go down All I know is that fear has got to go This time around I've started feeling like I don't want to fight Give in to the given and put out the light Cannons a-blazin' shower these moonlit skies Then I remember and I know why he died Do you know why I die? You can't say I didn't give it I won't wait another minute We're on our way this time around You can't say I didn't give it I won't wait another minute We're on our way this time around You can't say I didn't give it I won't wait another minute We're on our way this time around You can't say I didn't give it I won't wait another minute We're on our way this time around And we won't go down And we won't go down And we won't go down
