We’re at the edge of the city
See the flames up in the sky
Now the children break the silence
Singing all through the night
Maybe we're not made for these things
But honestly I’ve never felt like this
I know I'm close to the end
But I’ll do it all again

Now the people are coming alive to see the bright lights
And as the earth burns steady tonight, we hold our heads high

So when there’s nothing left but ashes
We feel the dirt beneath our feet
We’ll spend every day from daylight till dawn
Knowing we’ll be free

Now the people are coming alive to see the bright lights
And as the earth burns steady tonight, we hold our heads high

So welcome to our neighbourhood
We stand and fight for us, for you
There’s nothing you can do
To put us down, put us in the ground

Now the people are coming alive to see the bright lights
And as the earth burns steady tonight, we hold our heads high

And now the people are coming alive to see the bright lights
And as the earth burns steady tonight, we hold our heads high

Living fast, dying young, we just wanna have some fun
We’re the rivals of this town, light a match and burn it down
Living fast, dying young, we just wanna have some fun
We’re the rivals of this town, light a match and burn it down

We’re the rivals of this town, light a match and burn it down
