You try to crawl into our minds

And tear our dreams out from inside

But though they bruise and though they bleed

They will never die



Like autumn leaves we fall

Were scattered to the wind

But still we stand so tall

Always fighting - never giving up - never giving in



On ashen wings we rise

Were scattered to the wind

But still we strive to fly

Always fighting - never giving up



Dont tell us we wont make it

Dont tell us we will break down

Dont tell us we dont have the strength



Dont tell us we wont make it

Dont tell us we will break down

Dont tell us we dont have what it takes



A small town anywhere - this side of America

The streets are crawling full of those that dont know like us

Bred for boredom - and stupefied to slavery

Theyre never living - always dying - drowned in apathy



A city anywhere - this side of America

The streets are crawling full of those that dont know like us

Bred for boredom - and stupefied to slavery

Theyre never living - always dying - drowning



Like autumn leaves we fall

Were scattered to the wind

But still we stand so tall

Always fighting - never giving up - never giving in



On ashen wings we rise

Were scattered to the wind

But still we strive to fly

Always fighting - never giving up



Dont tell us we wont make it

Dont tell us we will break down

Dont tell us we dont have the strength



Dont tell us we wont make it

Dont tell us we will break down

Dont tell us we dont have what it takes
