verse 1
A B
They think that we're no one,
C#m B
we`re nothing, not sorry
A B
They push us, it's too late,
C#m B
it's too late. Not going back...
A B
They think we are made up
C#m B
Of all of our failures
A B
They think we are foolish
C#m B A
And that's how the story goes
B C#m
They stand for nothing
B
They're lifeless and cold
A
Anything they say
B C#m B A
Will never break our hearts of gold
[Refrão] B C#m
When you're standing on the edge
B A
So young and hopeless
B C#m
Got demons in your head
B A
We are, we are
B C#m
No ground beneath your feet
B A
Not here to hold you
B A
'Cause we are, we are
B A
The colors in the dark

Now covered in madness

But they just can't hurt us?

They tell us were nothing

Keep walking and let it go

They are the weakest
B
And don't even know
A
Anything they say
B C#m B A
Will never break our hearts of gold
[Refrão] B C#m
When you're standing on the edge
B A
So young and hopeless

Got demons in your head

We are, we are

No ground beneath your feet

Not here to hold you

'Cause we are, we are

The colors in the dark

Never tell yourself

You should be someone else

Stand up tall and say
