Here, time’s priceless
Beginning feels fine
But it’s all for nothing
They won’t lie any more, now it’s over
Just one chance
Chorus:
He never started the fight /
Was only there for the night /
Said “I ain’t backing down”
(Ain’t backing down)
Then, in a moment or two
He felt the shots coming through
Cause, still: “I ain’t backing down”
(Ain’t backing down)
No choice,
They’ll have no choice by then
They’ll have to stop by then
Suddenly he’s walking.
Through the halls of yesterday
Leaning, all the wrong turns
Some are starring, should he stay
We need to set a date
(And we need to pray)
Did he even save his face
Cause he needs the world to change
Just ran over, bleeding
always slip away
just one Chance
Chorus
He never started the fight /
Was only there for the night /
Said “I ain’t backing down”
(Ain’t backing down)
Then, in a moment or two
He felt the shots coming through
Cause, still: “I ain’t backing down”
Oh no, he’s not backing down.
No choice,
They’ll have no choice by then
They’ll have to stop by then
They’ll have to stop by then
They’ll have to stop by then
