Lyrics[]
You rise
You fall
You're down, then you rise again
What don't kill ya make ya more strong
Rise, fall, down, rise again
What don't kill ya make ya more strong
Rise, fall, down, rise again
What don't kill ya make ya more strong
Through black days
Through black nights
Through pitch black insides
Breaking your teeth on the hard life comin'
Show your scars
Cutting your feet on the hard earth runnin'
Show your scars
Breaking your life, broken, beat and scarred
But we die hard
The dawn,
The death,
The fight to the final breath
What don't kill ya make ya more strong
Dawn, death, fight, final breath
What don't kill ya make ya more strong
Dawn, death, fight, final breath
What don't kill ya make ya more strong
They scratch me
They scrape me
They cut and rape me
Breaking your teeth on the hard life comin'
Show your scars
Cutting your feet on the hard earth runnin'
Show your scars
Breaking your life, broken, beat and scarred
But we die hard
Breaking your teeth on the hard life comin'
Show your scars
Cutting your feet on the hard earth runnin'
Show your scars
Bleeding your soul in a hard luck story
Show your scars
Spilling your blood in the hot sun's glory
Show your scars
Breaking your life, broken, beat and scarred
We die hard
We die hard, we die hard
