Lyrics:

There was a time
You thought it all was for you
You saw the sun in the sky
You breathed the air and you knew
That the world was yours
It was something to have
It was all-you-can-eat
You took all you could grab

Oh, what a time
What a sight to behold
You were more than alive
Your ambitions were bold
You were high on a bluff
Could not confess a mistake
You demanded the best
Left the worst in your wake

You could never be stopped
It was your moment
All the destiny talk
It kept you going
What an awful surprise
To see it all flash through your eyes

Tonight we live in anarchy
Tonight the idols will fall
Tonight we live with the heartache
Fooling like you rule it all

Tonight belongs to no one
Tonight is bigger than you
Tonight we're going to show them
There's nothing that we will not do

These are the thoughts
That we have in the dark
While you're calling the shots
We're swimming with sharks
In a battle royale
In a bevy of blows
Every bump in the road
Like a punch in the nose

This is the crowd
That you cannot control
They are calling you out
They will swallow you whole
There is fire in their eyes
There is blood on their hands
You're the one they despise
And they're making demands

There is nowhere to run
They're at the front door
And now that you are the one
That they have come for
What a horrible shock
To be the new head on the block

Tonight we live in anarchy
Tonight the idols will fall
Tonight we live with the heartache
Fooling like you rule it all

Tonight belongs to no one
Tonight is bigger than you
Tonight we're going to show them
There's nothing that we will not do
