MAT KEARNEY LYRICS - Won't Back Down

"Won't Back Down"



You woke the morning up

Running off my darkest night

The longest fight I've seen



And here goes a chance I know

Cashing in on all my chips

Let all my ships come fly



These days, a little bit longer than the last

And all of these ways, a little bit stronger than the past

And your light, found my bottle in the night

Gave me second life, you kept me in this fight



And I won't back down

I won't turn around and around

And I won't back down

Doesn't matter what comes crashing down

I'm still gonna stand my solid ground



And you found me once and for all

I laid it down in the sinking ground

The hopeless undertow



Singing out the gentle sound

Rattling through my smoking screens

My broken dreams last night



And these days, a little bit longer than the last

And all of these ways, a little bit stronger than the past

And all of your light, found my bottle in the night

You kept in this fight, you gave me second life



And I won't back down

I won't turn around and around

And I won't back down

Doesn't matter what comes crashing down

I'm still gonna stand my solid ground



And I sing hallelujah ripped through my veins

I heard the hammer drop

My blood in the rain

Sing hallelujah came like a train

When all is lost, all is left to gain



I won't back down

And I won't turn around and around

And I won't back down

Doesn't matter what comes crashing down

I'm still gonna stand my solid



And I won't back down

And I won't turn around and around

And I won't back down

Doesn't matter what comes crashing down

I'm still gonna stand my solid ground



Hallelujah...

Hallelujah...

Hallelujah...

Sing Hallelujah...

Sing Hallelujah...
