And you're not gonna bring me down.
Sometimes you reach the crossroad
Where all you can say is
"I'm through"
And these crimson thorns
The heart that's torn
And I can't do this without you
The flames call out your tired name
You'll have to repay them someday
That heart of ice, of men and mice
The best laid plans can't execute twice
This will never be the same
Look, no more
I wish I could speak to you
All the faith I put in you
But I know in my core
It's not the answer I'm looking for
You'll never take me alive
No, I'm not gonna lie
'Cause here's the truth
And it might hurt you
But you're never too young to die
Let go of me
(Please
What for?)
I'm not worth your pity
(But I'm stronger than before)
Let it die
(But please, what for?)
I'm getting outta the city
(To thrive on something more)
And the promised laughter
Perished vows
What I'm after
Nothing to laugh about now
I'm not one to crave a lie
Some form of comfort to live by
Your roses' thorns
Can't hurt me anymore
'Cause I'm never afraid to die
