When the night draws in
And evil's all around
Sends you in a spin
And nerves are tightly wound
When the danger's near
And I can't see what's ahead
And I face my fear
And the sky is bleeding red
My life will never be the same
Lost time, is all I have to gain
And I won't back down
Never back down
I won't back down, no way
And I won't back down
Never back down
Living for today
When your life is hard
And beaten into sin
The devil marks your card
He wants you to give in
When the serpent's cry
Entices you to stray
An eye for an eye
Your spirit won't give way
My life will never be the same
Lost time, is all I have to gain
And I won't back down
Never back down
I won't back down, no way
And I won't back down
Never back down
Living for today
And evil's all around
Sends you in a spin
And nerves are tightly wound
When the danger's near
And I can't see what's ahead
And I face my fear
And the sky is bleeding red
My life will never be the same
Lost time, is all I have to gain
And I won't back down
Never back down
I won't back down, no way
And I won't back down
Never back down
Living for today
When your life is hard
And beaten into sin
The devil marks your card
He wants you to give in
When the serpent's cry
Entices you to stray
An eye for an eye
Your spirit won't give way
My life will never be the same
Lost time, is all I have to gain
And I won't back down
Never back down
I won't back down, no way
And I won't back down
Never back down
Living for today
