We're at the edge of the city,
See the flames up in the sky.
And now the children break the silence,
Singing all through the night.
Maybe we're not made for these things,
But honestly I've never felt like this.
I know I'm close to the end,
But I'll do it all again.

Now the people are coming alive to see the bright light,
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da
And as the earth burns steady tonight, we hold our heads high
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da

So when there's nothing left but ashes
We feel the dirt beneath our feet.
We'll spend every day from daylight 'til dawn,
Knowing we'll be free.
(Knowing we'll be free)

Now the people are coming alive to see the bright light,
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da
And as the earth burns steady tonight, we hold our heads high
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da

So welcome to our neighbourhood.
We stand and fight for us, for you.
There's nothing you can do
To put us down. Put us in the ground.
(Pus us in the ground)

And now the people are coming alive to see the bright light,
And as the earth burns steady tonight, we hold our heads high.

And now the people are coming alive to see the bright light
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da
And as the earth burns steady tonight, we hold our heads high
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da

Living fast, dying young. We just wanna have some fun.
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da
We're the rivals of this town. Light a match and burn it down.
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da
Ah living fast, dying young. We just wanna have some fun.
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da
We're the rivals of this town. Light a match and burn it down!
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da
Ba ba ba da da

We're the rivals of this town. Light a match and burn it down...
