I’ve seen the rise and the fall The bitterness and all The empty hearts that stopped Before they left their mark
In this town your worst friends Can be your best enemies Share the same last wish, last names It’s all lies to keep you in line
So hang on, be strong Long live the kids in us all Pride may fail us But God we will die trying
Hang on, be strong Long live the kids in us all Fate may cheat us But God we will die trying
Hope, hey!
I’ve been the hope, and the doubt The fear of breaking down These insecurities until there’s nothing left (Until there’s nothing left)
I wanna scream, I wanna live I don’t care who’s listening I won’t wait my turn to be the ignorance (Hey, hey, hey, hey) It’s all lies to keep you in line
So hang on, be strong Long live the kids in us all Pride may fail us But God we will die trying
Hang on, be strong Long live the kids in us all Fate may cheat us But God we will die trying
You can’t tell us no! You can’t tell us no! No! No-oh! You can’t tell us no! No! No-oh! You can’t tell us no!
You can’t tell us no, no, no, no, no!
Hang on, be strong Long live the kids in us all Pride may fail us But God we will die trying
Hang on, be strong Long live the kids in us all Pride may fail us But God we will die trying
Hang on, be strong Long live the kids in us all Fate may cheat us But God we will die trying God we will die trying
No, no-oh! You can’t tell us no! No, no-oh! You can’t tell us no! No, no-oh! You can’t tell us no! No, no-oh! You can’t tell us no!
