"Won't Back Down" lyrics

Every morning when I face my fears
I'm sure today's gonna be just fine
Every evening when I'm close to tears
I tell myself there will be a next time

You want me to cry
But I'm not gonna
And do you know why?
'Cause I don't wanna
Be a victim of your bitterness
'Cause everything is gonna be alright
So can you hear me sing?

Every time I'm forced to hear you talk
It feels like we're only wasting time
It keeps reminding me of screeching chalk
I cannot stand your pessimistic lines

You want us to cry
But we're not gonna
And do you know why?
'Cause we don't wanna
Be convictions of your bitterness
'Cause everything is gonna be alright
So can you hear me sing?

No, we won't back down
No, we won't back down
So can you hear me sing?
(No, we won't back down)
So can you hear me sing?
(No, we won't back down)
So can you hear me sing?

(No, we won't back down)
So can you hear me sing?
(No, we won't back down)
So can you hear me sing?
(No, we won't back down)
So can you hear me sing?
(No, we won't back down)
Said can you hear me sing?
