we will not go quietly

it's like a heart attack

i see the shock when you face it

we couldn't take it so we got a little wasted

i'd really love to see the look on their face

when you open your eyes

when you open your eyes

we run away

but who is gonna save us

the only people that you find are gonna slay us

i'd really love to hear the sound of your voice

when you're screaming their name

when you're screaming their name

you gotta burn it down

you gotta blow it up

you gotta give them hell

you gotta pull the plug

and you can run away

and you can kill the beast

and you can try to kill yourself

but you can never kill me

hey! if this is how the world will end

well you can burn it again

'cause we will not go quietly

hey! if this is how the world will end

well you can tell all your friends

that we will not go quietly

so when you find yourself

you're in a place that you're scared of

you wake up to see a face you wouldn't dare love

they're gonna try to take the blood from your veins

when you open your eyes

when you open your eyes

we run away

but who is gonna save us

the only people that you find will betray us

they're gonna hate to hear the sound of my voice

when we're screaming their name

when we're screaming their name

you gotta burn it down

you gotta blow it up

you gotta give them hell

you gotta pull the plug

and you can run away

and you can kill the beast

and you can try to kill yourself

but you can never kill me

hey! if this is how the world will end

well you can burn it again

'cause we will not go quietly

hey! if this is how the world will end

well you can tell all your friends

that we will not go quietly

oh

we will not go quietly

yeah

you gotta burn it down

you gotta blow it up

you gotta give them hell

you gotta pull the plug

and you can run away

and you can kill the beast

and you can try to kill yourself

but you can never kill me

hey! if this is how the world will end

well you can burn it again

'cause we will not go quietly

hey! if this is how the world will end

well you can tell all your friends

that we will not go quietly

hey! if this is how the world will end

you can tell all your friends

that we will not go quietly

hey! if this is how the world will end

you can burn it again

'cause we will not go quietly
