Defiant

Everything I need is out of reach these days

As life gets down to the wire

Not a single thing that I love ever stays

And don't get burned in the fire

One door opens and another one shuts

And slams in my face and it drives me nuts

I can't make right for the things I've done

I'm looking down the barrel of a gun

'Cause I'm on fire

I'm on fire all the time

I don't get tired, I just get higher

I stand defiant, defiant

You can't deny it of me

I stand defiant, defiant

No, I ain't lying, you'll see

I'll defy you

The next big thing has been gone

I'm here, I'm ready, no waiting

Got a foot in the door, gonna sing my song

While the music is playing

Remember, you thought I wouldn't last six months

But 50 years on, I haven't had enough

Been to hell and back, yeah, I called your bluff

And here I am, still going strong

'Cause I'm on fire

I'm on fire all the time

I don't get tired, I just get higher

I stand defiant, defiant

You can't deny it of me

I stand defiant, defiant

No, I ain't lying, you'll see

I'll defy you

Keep on swimming if you don't look back

Everything, it stays the same

I won't step into that river once again

I stand defiant, defiant

You can't deny it of me

I stand defiant, defiant

No, I ain't lying, you'll see

I stand defiant, defiant

You can't deny it of me

I stand defiant, defiant

No, I ain't lying, you'll see

I'll defy you
