People want knowledge
But people want youth
Everybody wants the news
Nobody wants the truth
They wanna a club they can belong to
They want their cake
They want some coffee too

Please don't give up on us
Hold out fo truth and for love

I won't fade out
I won't go
I won't lay down
For anything below
Thought the waves crash and pound
I won't go like this
And if this ship goes down
I'll go down fighting

People want comfort
But they want it cheap
Everybody wants to win
As long as it's easy
They want someone to think for them
They want two eyes to blink for them

Please dont'give up on us
Hold out for truth and for love

I won't fade out
I won't go
I won't lay down
For anything below
Thought the waves crash and pound
I won't go like this
And if this ship goes down
I'll go down fighting

Show me a man who runs his own course
And i'll show you a hero with a cause
Worth fighting for
Speak your lies
Criticize
You can't touch
What lies inside

Cause
I won't fade out (I won't fade out)
I won't go
I won't lay down
For anything below
Thought the waves crash and pound
I won't go like this (I won't go like this)
And if this ship goes down
I'll go down fighting

(I won't fade out)
I won't lay down for anything below (lay down)
Though the waves crash and pound (waves crash and pound)
I won't go like this
And if this ship goes down
I'll go down fighting
