Bridges to the same shores
Suffering the same wars
Waiting for the word to be sent
Who’s it gonna be
When they send the decree
Who’ll get the punishment
I’ve been a shelter to the drifter
Sometimes the grifter
Now they wanna tear me down
Oh the games that are played
And the money that’s paid
To the people who run this town
Run it down, into the ground
Run it down, into the ground
I’ve heard it all said
That I’d be better off dead
And if that wish comes true
You’d better watch your back
I’m gonna tell you that
Someday they’ll be coming for you
They’re coming for you
They’re coming for you
As hard as they try
They’re never gonna tear me down
As hard as they try
They’re never gonna tear me down
Hold my hands high
I’m gonna hold my ground, gonna hold my ground
As hard as they try
They’re never gonna tear me down
As hard as they try
They’re never gonna tear me down
Hold my hands high
I’m gonna hold my ground, hold my ground
As hard as they try
They’re never gonna tear me down
As hard as they try
They’re never gonna tear me down
