Victory or Death (We Gave ’em Hell) Songtext
von Anti‐Flag

When the world starts burning
Ring the bell, ring the bell
We can say we were there when it fell
Hear the voice of the choir
Fare thee well, fare thee well
We gave ′em hell, gave 'em hell, gave ′em hell

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave ′em hell

You were born far away in the pouring rain
Dreaming I would meet you there some day
Well, I don′t know your story, and I don't know your name
But I can tell you that you won′t die in vain


When the world starts burning
Ring the bell, ring the bell
We can say we were there when it fell
Hear the voice of the choir
Fare thee well, fare thee well
We gave 'em hell, gave ′em hell, gave 'em hell (yeah)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We gave ′em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell

When you come face to face with the weight of your fate
Count your blessings or just count your mistakes
When the sun begins to set on the things you never did
Will they haunt you or the ones you have left?

To the end of the day, nothing left but to raise
Up a glass to the lost and the brave
You may be buried in a grave that is marked with no name
But I′ll be thrown down in a hole just the same (just the same)

To arms, the brave
Unknown soldiers way
March on, march on ′til our very last breath
It's victory or death


When the world starts burning
Ring the bell, ring the bell
We can say we were there when it fell
Hear the voice of the choir
Fare thee well, fare thee well
We gave ′em hell, gave 'em hell, gave ′em hell
We gave 'em hell, gave ′em hell, gave 'em hell (gave 'em hell!)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (give it up)
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We gave ′em hell, gave ′em hell, gave 'em hell

When the world starts burning
Ring the bell, ring the bell
We can say we were there when it fell (when it fell)
Hear the voice of the choir
Fare thee well, fare thee well
We gave ′em hell, gave 'em hell, gave ′em hell (we gave 'em hell)

We gave ′em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell (we gave ′em hell)
We gave ′em hell, gave 'em hell, gave ′em hell
