Escape The Fate - We Won't Back Down Lyrics






We're gonna burn your city,
Gonna bring your system down.
I'm gonna drown my pity,
Turn this to a ghost town,
And when you know there's nothing left,
You're gonna run like all the rest.
Pack your bags and turn your back
on all the friends you had left.

And it's time for us to live, yeah

It's my time,
This is just a declaration of our vows (Whoa)
We won't back down.
It's my time,
This is just your resignation from our lives (Whoa)
We won't back down.

We're gonna drown your ego,
You're the legend no one knows,
You're an honest fake I know (You're an honest fake I know),
So now I drown my pity,
In a pool of sorrow and shame,
Until the day I forget your name

And you gotta let me live, yeah

It's my time,
This is just a declaration of our vows (Whoa)
We won't back down.
It's my time,
This is just your resignation from our lives (Whoa)
We won't back down,
We won't back down.

It's time to forget what makes me sick,
Deep inside of me (deep inside of me)
And it's time to forget what makes me sick,
Deep inside of me, yeah.

And you gotta let me live, yeah

It's my time,
This is just a declaration of our vows (Whoa)
We won't back down.
(hey hey hey hey [repeated])
It's my time,
This is just your resignation, from our lives (Whoa)
We won't back down
We won't back down

We won't back down
We won't back down.

    @Levente Györgydeák yeah true, but *no hate* with ronnie they we're better.. just my honest opinion. i also don't like the new stuff FIR has released, their first album was kinda nice but the style change is just as fucked up as bmth's new songs.. all these good bands are turning into fucking mainstream poptards.. really i can't stand this.. my teenage heroes are turning them selfes into villains.. BLEGH

  30. L.... S....

  35. B.... B....

    We're not devil worshippers you fucktard, they can do whatever the hell they want with their album title so go watch How To Train Your Dragon and shove your shitty hater opinion up your ass, because no one here wants to hear you speak if you don't like the band don't listen dumbshit simple as that.

  44. f.... b....

    go eat the children

  45. T.... ....

    Ima gonna drown my pidgey!! 0:12

  46. S.... ....

    and making an ass out of himself, and ETF's new song Ungrateful is amazing, I decided to check out this album with an open mind right after listening to all their shit with Ronnie, to imagine its my first impression of craig again, and its sooo good! thr music actually sounds just like Dying Is Your Latest Fashion a lot, his voice is just so different.

  47. S.... ....

    haha its funny, i was in middle school from 2006-2009 during which I was a HUGE escape the fate fan. When ronnie got sent to prison and craig joined, i HATED him. when this album came out i didnt evem give it the time of day. i was like oh ETF's new song came out, lets check out their new singer! Then I heard Something and was like wtf...then i heard some of the iTunes previews when it came out and decided I hated his voice (keep in mind, I was pretty young). Well now that Ronnie's back

  48. R.... A....

    go eat children

  49. S.... W....

    that would be amazing

  50. R.... ....

    Will an ETF song ever appear in a Sonic game?

  51. b.... ....

    its craig mabbitts new side project, he made a heavier band for fans that miss that side of him.

  52. m.... c....

    its awsome that ash ketchum listens to ETF :D

  53. M.... ....

    it's Craig's side project

  54. A.... ....

    What do you mean with "his" new band? Are they making another band or something?

  55. A.... B....

    Go train your Pikachu

  56. G.... C....

    Great song wish craig would shave the little piece of bumfluf under his chin

  57. b.... ....

    I just came this is just a declaration

  58. b.... ....

    if you want screams go check out his new band called , dead rabbitts.

  59. T.... D....

    Are you guys really still talking about Ronnie and Craig?
    If you guys like Ronnie' Go listen to his music..
    If you guys like Craig' Stay here. Simple. Don't leave shit remarks on music. Like seriously. Its fucking stupid.

  60. X.... S....

    I LOve both Ronnie and Craig both have amazing voices.C:
    I realy wish Fights would stop..:/

  61. O.... ....

    Finally someone else who understands XD

  62. B.... C....

    this is so sad....no scream

  63. i.... ....

    It should, some people just either picked a side and jumped on the bandwagon or are still bitter about BTF and ETF's break-ups. but now we have a ton more awesome bands. Blessthefall, Escape The Fate, Falling In Reverse, Natural Born Killers and The Word Alive.

  64. s.... d....

    ich werde ronny heiraten :D

  65. f.... ....

    this song helps a lot, my friend just got cyber bullyed and i stuck up for him and i sent this :D 'dont back down!' becuz we won the fight they was bullying him becuz they was older... like 6 on him.. so 6vs2 ;) and we won ^_^ so yah im glad to say this song really helps.. my buddys fine now ^_^ guess people can be right assholes :(

  66. u.... ....

    Shouldn't really matter either way. I don't see the big issue between Ronnie and Craig. They're both good in their own areas. The bullshit that is between the two bands should just stop. Shit happens.

  67. M.... Y....

    No matter how many times i hear it i always go crazy !!!!!

  68. i.... ....

    Well, a lot of us have been listening to them since around 06 or 07, so we didn't have Ronnie for about 4 years.

  69. w.... w....

    this song is awesome :D

  70. J.... V....

    I played this song every time I was going to get into a scrap...

  71. W.... ....

    I'd rather Craig be in a hole somewhere off the coast of California, but that's beside the point. This is good music, they still use the same tuning's and effects as the old ETF so I have no choice, but to like them.

  72. C.... ....

    Thx.Im A Fan Of My Work :D

  73. k.... ....

    you are a genius, my good sir :)

  74. C.... ....

    4:03 Gets Me Everytime ;)

  75. c.... j....

    falling in reverse+natural born killers gess wat? WE'RE GONNA BURN YO CITIES<3

  76. A.... ....

    Yes, I suppose you can hate someone and be a fan of WHAT they do. But the way you worded it was that you were a fan of the songs they they were producing. EVen if they aren't the old "Escape the Fate" but still produce great music, theres no real reason to hate them. Though I do understand what you mean, only having one oridginal member is pretty much like saying it's a completely new band. Still I see no reason to hate them.

  77. A.... ....

    ..Okay lolwut, your not a fan of them, but your a fan or their music? Wtf. Isn't it the music that makes you a fan of a band in the first place? What was it about the original band that made you a fan if it wasn't the music? If your a fan of the music, your a fan of the band. OR your a fan of 1 particular song. or somehting like that. There isn't really another reason why someone can be a fan of a band (unless they did something heroic or some crap.)

  78. A.... ....

    Don't worry but what couldn've been, just enjoy what you have in the moment. That's how I like to think about it. I actually have no idea about these two people because I don't useally research their past, and waht members they've gained or lost... I just find good bands, and then get all of their songs on MP3 and ejoy the music for what it is. (Also just be glad that this change in band members didn't make the music garbage. )

  79. N.... W....

    I do the same ! AND I LUV ETF AND FIR <33

  80. D.... S....

    the intro is badass !!

  81. i.... j....

    yeahh, it's about ronnie kicked out escape the faith, i dont think people should say that they really like escape the faith or valling in reverse becouse they r both good

  82. L.... D....

    This stuff is good, but this is the "pop crap with no meaning" of the rock world. (which says something about the rest because this is fucking amazing)

  83. e.... a....

    i got to admit that i like the new etf but its fucked up what they did to Ronie

  84. N.... ....

    You guys, shut up about all this "Team Craig" "Team Ronnie" crap. Ronnie has been gone for atleast four years now! Get over it! The past is the past, live in the present! If you like Ronnie, listen to FIR if you like Craig listen to ETF. They're both freaking amazing ;D

  85. J.... P....

    why the fuck cant i listen to this on my goddamn ipod! /:

  86. K.... D....

    CRAIG FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!

  87. B.... ....

    2:39 gets me everytime

  88. A.... ....

    As long as you aren't listening to rap music (Well the sterotypical racist kind) then really it doesn't matter what else you listen to.

  89. K.... L....

    Wait. Craig's in this band and Ronnie is in Falling in Reverse? I never would've guessed.

  90. T.... ....

    i agree with loving this music, but giving up pop shouldnt really be nessessary, i listen to everything but country, miley and beiber, i dont stick with one style, like pop but love whatever u want,

  91. x.... ....

    a miracle happened! ;)

  92. B.... ....

    1:00-1:30 <3<3<3

  93. M.... S....

    hell yes!!!!!!! whoever you are we think the same way!!!!!!!!!!! i have been thinking the exact same thing...you are epic :) hehehe here *her* sing

  94. J.... C....

    "pop" is the sound that poop makes XD lolol
