What happens next

Lyrics

(Spoken, distant) Everybody's waiting for the fallout. [Verse 1] Pressure in my head, pressure in my chest Every bad decision is wearing holes in the flesh Viruses in the wires, this isn't a test Running from the mirror but it still knows my name The people want blood, the screens wants more Every crack in the system becomes a civil war Standing on the edge of another collapse Counting every second 'til the future snaps [Pre-Chorus] I can feel it crawling underneath my skin Like a raging storm that's starting to begin [Chorus] WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?! I don't care if it all falls down! I was born in the fire, I won't back down! What happens next?! You can load the gun, you can pull the pin! I've got nothing left but the fight within! What happens next?! Try to break me! Every mark you make is another reason I won't leave! Go ahead— Do your worst! I'll be the last one standing when the whole thing burns! WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?! [Verse 2] Echoes in the hall like a warning sign Everybody's running but they're out of time Smoke in the lungs, dust in the eyes Watching all the promises fossilize They sold us dreams wrapped in razor wire Fed the paranoia, called it desire Now we're choking on the words they said Trying to wake up from a future already dead [Pre-Chorus] I can hear the noise of the breakdown begin Like a thousand voices trying not to sin [Chorus] WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?! I don't care if it all falls down! I was born in the fire, I won't back down! What happens next?! You can load the gun, you can pull the pin! I've got nothing left but the fight within! What happens next?! Try to break me! Every mark you make is another reason I won't leave! Go ahead— Do your worst! I'll be the last one standing when the whole thing burns! WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?! [Bridge] No more waiting! No more chains around the thoughts we're saving! No more heroes! No more kings! Watch the chaos spread its wings! What happens— What happens— WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?! [Breakdown] Everything falls apart! And I'm still standing in the dark! You wanted silence— You got a riot! You wanted weakness— Come and try it! My back's against the wall— Still I rise! You can see the fury burning in my eyes! [Final Chorus] WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?! I don't care if it all falls down! I was born in the fire, I won't back down! What happens next?! You can load the gun, you can pull the pin! I've got nothing left but the fight within! What happens next?! Try to break me! Every mark you make is another reason I won't leave! Go ahead— Do your worst! I'll be the last one standing when the whole thing burns! WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?!
