Some things you just can’t leave behind you
And new town doesn’t mean new horizons
So fight all you want, you can’t change a thing
You’re the chosen one, you’re a slayer born
And you’re home

We like to think that the friends that we have are the ones we can count on
But sometimes you just don’t know yourself
Caught up in the things that they don’t understand people slip to the dark side
It’s up to you to save yourself
Go down and look for a friend
But be wary, you could find something else
It seems at times like these
It’s a leap of faith

How do I hate this? Let me count the ways
Mum was better when she didn’t have a say
Now she’s taking over and I’m losing the fight
And in a very real way she’s taking over my life
How could this happen? Tell me what’s the deal
Mum’s gone mad and I’m the only one who sees
Now it’s freaky friday but she’s calling the shots
And she’s driving away every friend that I’ve got
Mum!
You’re a witch mum
You’re a witch mum
You’re a bitch mum
Mum!
You’re a witch mum
You’re a witch mum
You’re a bitch!

You don’t want to believe that this could be anything less
It’s about time you got your own plot device
We see the way she looks at you, you feel it too
And there’s no way that this could be anything less
Than love
They find it hard to believe that she could be the one for you
If they could see you like she does, they’d feel it to
The stars are out, they’re shining bright for her and you
And there’s no way that this could be anything less
Than love

I know you think that you like danger boy
But you have never seen nothing like this
And I know I said it could get stranger boy
But you have never dreamt nothing like this
And you can run, you can fight
But when it comes down to the line
You’re out your depth
Just you wait and see
Cos I know you think that you like danger boy
But you have never had nothing like me
So run away boy
It isn’t safe boy
I’m bad for your health

Everybody wants to feel the same
Everybody wants a group who understands their pain
And the question we face
How far will you go to join that chase?
Cos you know you could
And you know you should
And you know you must resist the call
Of The Pack
Everybody wants to feel the same
Everybody wants a group who understands their pain
And the question we face
How far would you go to win that race?
Cos you know you could
And you know you should
And you know you must resist the call
Of The Pack

I pull you near
I feel your heart beat close to me
And we both know
This is as far as it goes
You and I will never see the sun
Tonight is the end before it’s begun
If this is our only night alone
I’ll carry it everywhere I go
Cos we know this
We can feel this
But it doesn’t stop this burning deep inside my soul

I know your pain
I know your fear
I know the things you cannot say
I know your heart
I know you cry
I see you scream behind those eyes
And all your friends
And All your friends
Can never love you like I can
And all your friends
And All your friends
Can never love you like I can
With just one kiss your heart will be mine
And all your fears will melt into time
And all the things you never had
With just one kiss, the palm of your hand

You think you know someone
Just because you see them everyday
But you will never know their mind
And in your darkest hour
They could be the one to save your life
You think you know someone
Just because you see the way they dress
But you will never know whats inside
And by the time you realise
It’s too late to tell
You know there is no other way
People surprise you every day
And you will never know their heart
Until you stare into the dark

The things you fear define you
So tonight you’re mine
The things you pray won’t find you
Stand right by my side
Don’t try to run
Don’t try to fight
There’s nowhere to hide
The things you fear will fight you
From deep in your mind
It’s a dream, it’s a dream, this has gotta be a dream
Then wake up
It’s a dream, it’s a dream, this has gotta be a dream
Then wake up
And you know the truth
It’s only in your mind if you let it be
Or you will fight
What’s in your dreams tonight

You’ll never see the way you hurt me
You’ll never see the way you made me cry
You’ll never see the way you turned my heart to stone
But you’ll learn
Some girls will wear you out with all the lies that they tell
Some girls will break you down with all the names that they call
But you were the worst
Because you couldn’t see what you did to me
But you will.

You fight the master and you die
You fight the master and you die
You fight the master
The story’s all been told, there’s no room for mistakes
One way or another, this won’t take long
They tell me it’s my fate and words just can’t be wrong
And I’m the one who’ll pay the price
And I know the end is very nigh
And I know my time as come
But when it does
I won’t cry
I will fight
I won’t take this lying down
And I won’t die
If fate is all pre-warned, and no-one’s free to try
Makes you wonder why we even try to fight
But I reject my fate, I’ll fight til my last breath
One way or another, this won’t take long
And I know the end is very nigh
And I know my time as come
But when it does
I won’t cry
I will fight
I won’t take this lying down
And I won’t die
Read me the signs
Tell me my fortune
You’re so useful sitting there with all your books
I am sixteen years old and I don’t want to die
I defy prophecy
There’s nothing you can do to change my mind
And I know the end is very nigh
And I know my time as come
But when it does
I won’t cry
I will fight
I won’t take this lying down
And I won’t die
I won’t die
