So many times before I felt the world came crushing down And all around me slowly melt across entire town Right there you'd kneel and pray To someone up there with a crown… or wish yourself away While growing up I quickly learned – You always hold your ground And never leave a stone unturned – you better stick around We're born and die alone, so learn to make it on your own I won't trust, won't fear, won't beg I'm telling you: At last – forgive, forget – the words which I knew
As they were branded on my mind But now it's all what I can find: Won't trust, won't fear, won't beg for the rest of my life I won't trust, won't fear – that page's remaining unsigned Whoever tells you to retreat is messing with your head The fight's not over when you're beat but only when you're dead Don't let them shred your life to bits By now you should have learned Who never wins? The one who quits at the point of no return
