"We Won't Back Down"

[Megan]

We're gonna burn your city, we're gonna bring your system down,
I'm gonna drown my pity, turn this to a ghost town.
And when you know there's nothing left,
You're gonna run like all the rest.
Pack your bags and turn your back on all the friends you had left.
And it's time for us to live, yeah

It's my time, this is just a declaration of our vows,
(Whoa) We won't back down.
It's my time, this is just a resignation from our lives
(Whoa) We won't back down.

We're gonna drown your ego, you're the legend no one knows,
You're an honest fake I know (You're an honest fake I know)
So now I drown my pity, in a pool of sorrow and shame,
Until the day I forget your name (day I forget your name)

And you gotta let me live, yeah

It's time to forget what makes me sick, deep inside of me (deep inside of me)
It's time to forget what makes me sick, deep inside of me (deep inside of me)
And you've gotta let me live, yeah

We won't back down
We won't back down
We won't back down

So I was listening to this earlier, and I was thinking- a lot of it sounds like it could be about Ronnie, second verse especially. "We're gonna drown your ego/You're the legend no one knows"?
Thoughts?

I never thought about the lyrics as being about Ronnie... but its true, it does make a lot of sense like that. Love it <3

Now that I see the lyrics typed I agree. I'd sounds like it's about Ronnie

[rosechan916]

I think they got a lot of inspiration from Ronnie leaving and all the shit that happened. It's awesome that they're not letting him get them down.

not even that they are just "not letting him get them down"...but they are totally spiting him by calling him a "legend no one knows" haha.

lol i never thought about this, but now that i read the lyrics it could be about him.

"We're gonna drown your ego
You're [the legend] no one knows
You're an honest [fake, I know]"

"In a pool of [sorrow and shame]
[Until the day I forget your name]"

I think that covers everything.

Actually I also like this song but In this song one thing I can't hear friends and that is the music quality of it. Sometimes I felt that are they singing or fighting. But at the end it is part of the music called modern music so everything can be good here.
