Now look at you all standing proud
Dressed to k**, talking loud
Guitar in your hand
You see s** and violence, love and rage
Still survive in this day and age
And you're sick about that, go ahead
Life's gonna take it so break these chains
Come alive, the world's your stage
Love and pain and sacrifice
Flesh and blood all the songs of life
You said I will not go quietly in the night
Now look at you out on the streets
Your mom and dad think you're a freak
Don't understand you
You wear your heart on your sleeve
Seems all the people that you meet
They criticize you too
But just stand tall and face the pain
You will not fall for the masquerade
Love and pain and sacrifice
Flesh and blood, all the songs of life
You said I will not go quietly in the night
The losing clowns, that try to drag you down
But stand there, yeah
Your life's getting stranger
You know you can't change it
Destiny's a callin? you, nothing you can do
Now look at you all actin? strange
I wonder what the winds of change have done to you
Is it what you did or what you seen
Or all the things you could not fix that affected you?
Just you sing in
Love and pain and sacrifice
Flesh and blood, all the songs of life
You said I will not go quietly in the night
Wrong or right
Love and pain and sacrifice
Flesh and blood, all the songs of life
You said I will not go quietly in the night
You got to stand and fight
