Lyrics Icon For Hire – You Can’t Kill Us
Text:
I swear to God at night when I close my eyes,
I can still see this little lost girl inside.
And I don’t know how to help her, I don’t know what to do.
Supposed to have this figured out but I’m so confused.
Lived one day at a time, trying to just stay alive.
And I knew people had it worse, but that didn’t make me better.
Took all I had inside just to hold myself together.
But I knew I couldn’t stop, kept hoping one day,
Maybe I’d make it to a stage and tell you it’s all okay.
And that I love you. Even if I haven’t met you yet.
Hold on, stay strong and never forget
We’ve been lost, been to the bottom.
Beaten up, torn and forgotten.
Still we fight, we will survive.
Can’t kill the fire we feel inside.
We’ve been burned, drained and depleted.
Left alone, we’re not defeated.
Still we fight, we will survive.
Can’t kill the fire we feel inside.
You can’t, you can’t kill us
You can’t, you can’t kill us
Everyday I felt a little less pain inside.
But at that rate I knew I’d hurt until the day I died.
I refused to let the darkness, have the last say.
So when it came to call my name, I had to run the other way.
Maybe that’s what it takes, you have to tell the pain no.
Have to let the sick parts of your heart finally go.
Make room for the light, let it pull you in close.
And if you’re ever feeling low, I think you know where to go.
We’ve been lost, been to the bottom.
Beaten up, torn and forgotten.
Still we fight, we will survive.
Can’t kill the fire we feel inside.
We’ve been burned, drained and depleted.
Left alone, we’re not defeated.
Still we fight, we will survive.
Can’t kill the fire we feel inside.
You can’t, you can’t kill us
You can’t, you can’t kill us
One day we’re gonna wake up, we’re gonna be alright.
We’ll look back and be happy that we kept ourselves alive.
We’ll honor where we came from, see what the hurt was for.
But we don’t let our past hold us hostage anymore.
Cause we got more to give, more to live, more to be.
More to who we are than our broken history.
Like an army we all know it’s not all better yet.
But we hold on, stay strong, and never forget
You can’t, you can’t kill us
You can’t, you can’t kill us
We’ve been lost, been to the bottom.
Beaten up, torn and forgotten.
Still we fight, we will survive.
Can’t kill the fire we feel inside.
We’ve been burned, drained and depleted.
Left alone, we’re not defeated.
Still we fight, we will survive.
Can’t kill the fire we feel inside.
You can’t, you can’t kill us
You can’t, you can’t kill us
You can’t, you can’t kill us
You can’t, you can’t kill us
