I learned to be invisible
To take up less and less space
I wore their silence like a dress
And forgot I had a face
Every breath I held inside
Every word I swallowed whole
I became a perfect ghost
With a slowly dying soul
But the devil's an optimist
If he thinks I'm done for good
And even prisoners learn to dance
I finally understood
So I'm laying down the stones tonight
One by one they hit the floor
They can keep their quiet kingdom
I won't carry them anymore
Welcome the chaos
Their order has failed
Welcome the fire
I will not be jailed
I'm still here
Can you hear me now I'm still here
You wanted a ghost
I became a storm
You wanted me quiet
I was reborn
So get up, get up
If you know this song
Get up, get up, get up
We've been quiet too long
Get up
The cowards die a thousand times
I'll only die just once
They can call me mad or foolish
I'm nobody's little pawn
I'd rather burn out standing tall
Than fade inside their cage
They wrote the rules, I write the fire
They close the book, I turn the page
Welcome the chaos
Their world is a lie
Welcome the madness
Tonight we don't die
We're still here
Can you hear us now we're still here
You wanted us broken
We became the flood
You wanted us nothing
We turned pain to blood
So get up, get up
If you know this song
Get up, get up, get up
We've been quiet too long
Get up, get up, get up
Let them hear us now
Get up, get up, get up
We remember how
This is for everyone who smiled while breaking
For everyone who said"I'm fine" while shaking
For every voice they buried alive
For every fire that survived
We're still here
We're still here
We're still fucking here
Still here
Still here
They wanted a funeral
We gave them a dance
Still here
Still here
This is not the end
This is our chance
Get up (still here)
Get up (still here)
Get up (still here)
Get up
They wanted a funeral
We gave them a dancemore
