Blaze of glory

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

It's funny how they shoot you down

When your hands are held up high

And you open up your heart and soul

But that's not enough for most.

I remember this much

There is nothing

You shouldn't speak of

If you got something to say

And there is no one

To be scared of

Just get them out of the way

Going out in a blaze of glory

My heart is open wide

You can take anything that you want from me

There is nothing left to hide

Going out in a blaze of glory

My hands are held up high

I'm learning how to hit back

I'm learning how to fight

The law of the jungle says

You look after yourself

But I remember this much

I love as I've been loved myself.

Don't forget what I told you now

When the question keeps on coming

And it's "how much more can you take"

When they've ripped your clothes to pieces

"shouldn't you be gone by now"

But you keep on

Going out in a blaze of glory

Setting your sights for the sky.

They can offer you anything at all

But your dreams must not be sold.

Going out in a blaze of glory

No price is high enough

I'm fighting back with feeling

I'm fighting back with love

When the nails are biting into your hands

And the cross is heavy on your heart

Now is the time to really make a stand

My hands are held up high.

(going out)

In a blze of glory

(going out)

In a blaze of glory

(going out)

In a blaze of glory

Going out in a blaze of glory

My heart is open wide

You can take anything that you want from me

But you cannot take my soul

Going out in a blaze of glory

My hands are held up high

I'm learning how to hit back

Yes I'm learning how to fight

Going out in a blaze of glory

Going out with my heart wide open

Going out with my hands held high

Going out in a blaze of glory

(2x)

Fighting back with love

Fighting back with love!

No price is high enough

To take my soul, to take my soul

To take my soul

It's funny how they shoot you down

When your hands are held up high

(keep on going with my hands held high)
