Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Seems nowadays there's nothing sacred
You can push it aside, I guess there's nothing left to see
But everybody bleeds, everybody makes choices
And I don't know why
I guess there's nothing left for me
[Chorus]
But I won't be afraid
At the time of my life
Now the change is upon us
By the big city lights
No, it won't be the same every day of my life
Not the questions or the answers
Not the darkness or the light
[Verse 2]
I guess there's nothing left for me
They'll drink your blood
Like vampires in the streets
So give me five more minutes
Yeah, I guess that's all I need
As they follow in the footsteps of their greed, to what is found
[Chorus]
No, I won't be afraid every day of my life
Now the change is upon us
By the moments that you like
Not the truth or the lies
Not the ones that you blame
Now the change is upon us
No, it won't be the same
No, I won't be afraid
[Bridge]
Both the forest and the fire
Both the strongest and the weak
Both the rivers and the seas
Just like enemies, I guess there's something that we all need
[Bridge]
By the fire, I stand
Alone here in the silence
With an anchor, a spark, and there's a chain
By the emptiness, it ties you to your freedoms
I guess nobody sees them
I guess it's all the same
[Chorus]
No, I won't be afraid at the time of my life
Now the change is upon us
Not the moments that you like
No, it won't be the same every day of my life
It's not the things that you were after
Not the wrongs and not the rights
Not the fear that you keep running from
Not the reasons, not the fights
It's not the things that you were after
Not the taking of those sides
Not the questions or the answers
Not the darkness or the light
[Outro]
No, I won't be afraid
