So here I am
Standing still
Almost dead but not breaking away
Still alive
And still in fight
Still against every empty mind
And I feel the spirit of a youth
Never abandoned as long as we’re together
YEAH
Behind all the booze
And the smoke is a youth
Standing on frontline
Of hopeful expectations
And we must fight on
Beside each other, for each other
YEAH
So pay me like a football star
And love me like a god
When everything you are doesn't mean a thing
We're monsters, we are fighters
We are young and stupid kids
We're playing and we’re losing like we've never changed a thing
Until the king is dead
