You can't make me feel any smaller
So why do you try?
You can't bring me down any longer
You can't make me cry
There's a war going on
And there's a riot inside my mind
I've seen the writing on the wall
I'm gonna set this town on fire

Because you make me feel like I don't belong
And I ain't done you no wrong Just chasing rainbows

The streets are paved with cinder
All over this town
All the bricks have been picked from the ground
And thrown all around
You can't make me change my ways
It's like I've already died
You can't keep holding me down
Or make me change my mind

Well, this city has made me a stranger
With no place to go
And I feel like a crime and a danger
Acting on my own
There's a war going on
And there's a riot inside my mind
I've seen the writing on the wall
I'm gonna set your world on fire
