Like Torches - We Burn Like The Phoenix Lyrics

We're not screaming for attention
Just screaming cuz' we think it's fun
That's why you lost every battle we won

You see us everywhere you go
United under common goals
There's more of us than you will ever know

Oh no! Look, here we go again
So sick and tired of the way you pretend that everything will be fine
(you pretend everything's ok)
We'll see the end of that when you meet these friends of mine, and we'll go
(when really you're the one to blame)

We're just kids having fun (and you can't stop us)
What's going on? We ache to create, but you hold us back
(well you can try but let's be honest)
This has just begun, we won't back down, we'll break out and take back what is ours
(and we're not stopping, we won't slow down, now that you're running)

It didn't turn out the way you wanted
And we'll make sure it never will
It didn't turn out the way you wanted
And we'll make sure it never will

We're just kids having fun (and you can't stop us)
What's going on? We ache to create, but you hold us back
(well you can try but let's be honest)

Who are you to say what's wrong and what's right?
This is our time to shine, but you keep stealing our light
So we fight back anyway we know how
And graffiti saved my life a few year back still
You only see in blacks and whites don't you?
Well, now that's why you're losing
Like alligators chasing after ghosts
You'll catch nothing but dust
And we'll be nowhere to be found
Until we rain down to claim your heads!

And then we're gone again
Outlaws in your eyes, but for some we're heaven sent
And we're not stupid, we're not questioning the need for rules and regulations
Just questioning your rules and regulations!

We're just kids having fun (and you can't stop us)
What's going on? We ache to create, but you hold us back
(well you can try but let's be honest)

Understand that this ain't no call to arms
No, we're way past that
This is the last warning shot being fired
You need to step back, examine your actions and change
Or we'll start tearing this down
We'll burn it to the ground, and from the ashes we'll emerge
So rebuild this all for ourselves, with no place for you left in it
So step back as we burn like the phoenix
Cuz' we will deliver on every threat that we make
And we'll burn just like the phoenix!

This is your last chance to back away unharmed
So, go check yourself before you go and wreck yourself fool
This is your last chance to back away unharmed
So, go check yourself before you go and wreck yourself fool
