It's a truth that in love and war 
Worlds collide and hearts get broken, 
I want to live like I know I'm dying. 
Take up my cross, 
Not be afraid. 

Is it true what they say 
That words are weapons? 
And if it is, then everybody'd best stop steppin' 
'Cause I got ten in my pocket 
That'll bend ya locket. 
I'm tired of all these rockers saying 

Wait, 
It's just about to break, it's more than I can take, 
Everything's about to change. 
I feel it in my veins, it's not going away, 
Everything's about to change. 

It creeps in like a thief in the night, 
Without a sign, without a warning 
But we are ready and prepared to fight, 
Raise up your swords, 
Don't be afraid! 

Is it true what they say 
That words are weapons? 
And if it is, then everybody'd best stop steppin' 
'Cause I got ten in my pocket 
That'll bend ya locket, 
I'm tired of all these rockers saying "Come with me!" 

Wait, 
It's just about to break, it's more than I can take, 
Everything's about to change. 
I feel it in my veins, it's not going away, 
Everything's about to change. 

This is a warning, like it or not. 
I break down like a record spinning, gotta get up! 
So back off! 
This is a warning, like it or not. 
I'm tired of listenin', I'm warning you, don't try to get up! 

There's a war going on inside of me tonight 
(Don't be afraid), 
There's a war going on inside of me tonight 
(Don't be afraid). 

Wait, 
It's just about to break, it's more than I can take, 
Everything's about to change. 
I feel it in my veins, it's not going away, 
Everything's about to change.
