lyrics
PUNK ROCK BATTLE CRY
One life
One time
We’re gonna make it this time
If the fates allow
Trying to make my mark
Gonna be a comet
Burning bright
Better to die on your feet
Than to live on your knees
My punk rock battle cry
It’s liberating
Thinking free
Even when the cool people disagree
I played their game
I was a fool
Cause I forgot
To break the rules
One life
One time
We’re gonna make it this time
If the fates allow
Trying to make my mark
Gonna be a comet
Burning bright
Better to die on your feet
Than to live on your knees
A lifetime battle cry
All my heroes
Stood tall and free
So rally to me
This is a declaration
Of Independence
This is a punk rock cry
Let’s go
Let’s go
I’ll lead the way
Into a brighter day
You know your friends
When the chips are down
And the mob is at your door
And you’re not afraid anymore
One life
One time
We’re gonna make it this time
If the fates allow
Trying to make my mark
Gonna be a comet
Burning bright
One life
One time
We’re gonna make it this time
If the fates allow
Trying to make my mark
Gonna be a comet
Burning bright
Better to die on your feet
Than to live on your knees
My punk rock battle cry
It’s liberating
Thinking free
Even when the cool people disagree
I played their game
I was a fool
Cause I forgot
To break the rules
One life
One time
We’re gonna make it this time
If the fates allow
Trying to make my mark
Gonna be a comet
Burning bright
Better to die on your feet
Than to live on your knees
A lifetime battle cry
All my heroes
Stood tall and free
So rally to me
This is a declaration
Of Independence
This is a punk rock cry
Let’s go
Let’s go
I’ll lead the way
Into a brighter day
You know your friends
When the chips are down
And the mob is at your door
And you’re not afraid anymore
One life
One time
We’re gonna make it this time
If the fates allow
Trying to make my mark
Gonna be a comet
Burning bright
