Would you go to war for me, baby 

Would you cry for the weak 

And die for the peace of men 

Oh how can we know 

You and I both know 

So let's make this boatload of excuses burn and sing 


One day it all comes down to this 

You can sink or swim 

You can handle this 

One day it all comes down 

One day we all go down 


I'll take my heart back 

And set the people free 

I'll leave the dead to die

And take what's coming with me 


Step back for all the world to see 

Your life means all the world to me 

I'll take your pain and suffering 

I'm such a sucker sometimes 

Sometimes we don't know 

So plug up those bullet holes 

Oh you feel so close, don't let go until I say 


One day we'll drink to this and say 

Remember when we died 

We went out in flames 


I'll take my heart back 

And set the people free 

And take what's coming with me 


Step back for all the world to see 

Your life means all the world to me 

I'll take your pain and suffering 

I'm such a sucker sometimes 

Sometimes we don't know 

So plug up those bullet holes 

Oh you feel so close, don't let go until I say 


One day we'll drink to this and say 

Remember when we died 

We went out in flames 


I'll take my heart back 

And set the people free 

There will be blood in the streets
