It's a struggle, it's a shame
It's all give and no take
Whatever, it is now, it's right up to our waist

It's a pity, it's a shame to see it all slip away
I've seen you worried babe, but never this way
We hold our ground, we don't kneel

If we go down we go
Down on our own shield


It's a river of tears
And we're in over our ears
In the dark it rides off with our better years

It's a bottomless well
It's a little overkill
It's the end of a dragon's tail

That's whipping round our heels
But we don't bow, we make no deals
If we go down we go

Down on our own shield

In this corner ladies and gentlemen

Weighing in, all along my love for her is strong
We scaled pillars to here tonight
It's not the kind of trick you get to pull twice


It's an ambush girl
A cold-blooded low down dirty world

See them yellow lanters walk
A circle around our bit of earth
It's a turn for the worse

It's off with their heads if they don't learn

We do this over their dead bodies

Before it's over mine or yours
We don't beg for mercy dear
If we go down we go

Down on our own shield
