Verse 1: Matt Bellamy]
I never believed that I would concede and let someone trample on me
You strung me along, I thought I was strong, but you were just gaslightin’ me
I’ve opened my eyes and counted the lies, and now it is clearer to me
You are just a user and an abuser, living vicariously
I never believed that I would concede and get myself blown asunder
You strung me along, I thought I was strong, but now you have pushed me under
I’ve opened my eyes and counted the lies, and now it is clearer to me
You are just a user and an abuser, and I refuse to take it
[Chorus: Matt Bellamy]
Won’t stand down, I’m growing stronger
Won’t stand down, I’m owned no longer
Won’t stand down, you’ve used me for too long
Now die alone
[Verse 2: Matt Bellamy]
Now I’m coming back, a counterattack, I’m playin’ you at your own game
I’m cutting you out, a shadow of doubt is gonna hang over your name
I’ve opened my eyes, I see your disguise, I will never see you the same
I know how to win, before you begin, I’ll shoot you before you take aim
Now I’m coming back, a counterattack, a psychological war
I’m cutting you in, I’m under your skin, now I’m gonna settle the score
I’ve opened my eyes, I see your disguise, I will never see you the same
I know how to win, before you begin, I’ll shoot you before you take aim
[Chorus: Matt Bellamy]
Won’t stand down, I’m growing stronger
Won’t stand down, I’m owned no longer
Won’t stand down, you’ve used me for too long
Now die alone
[Interlude: Chris Wolstenholme]
(Won’t stand down)
(Breaking out)
(Won’t stand down)
[Chorus: Matt Bellamy]
Won’t stand down, I’m growing stronger
Won’t stand down, I’m owned no longer
Won’t stand down, you’ve used me for too long
Now die alone
[Outro: Chris Wolstenholme]
(Won’t stand down)
(Won’t stand down)
