Verse 1
(Seduction by skin deep beauity, tortured by wicked intent)
Still think that you can break me down? You won't
Still thinking that I need you? I don't
After all that I've been through that just wasn't fair
You must be deluded to think that I'd care
I never gave a second thought to my needs
While giving in to your selfish wining and pleads
And what of the chances that I'd take you back?
You must be kidding, (I) don't need the heartattack

Bridge
Why'd you bring me down, Why'd you try to bring me down?
You seem intent for your love to be a battle ground
Don't work like that; when you want someone you have to show it
Don't work like that; when you're with someone, you let them know it
Why'd you knock me down, while others try to beat me down
This ain't a ring, a ding-ding, another round!
Don't work like that; this is insane!

Chorus
I won't go down, see I've finally found myself
Got my life in my hands, got a future ahead
You can shout, you can scream, you can bitch
No! I won't go down!
I won't do down!

Verse 2
(Abstraction from all life around you, fixated on crooked intent)
The lover in my life you demand me to show!
Well, you're nothing to me now, no way, oh no
It took me a while to get my life back on track
Whilst small and petit you were such a weight on my back
You never stopped your whinning about your greatest fear
Those accusations and threats that obligate me to be here
But when I left you screamed "You're just like the rest!"
But you caused that yourself!.... oh!!!, it's just another test!

Bridge
Why'd you bring me down, Why'd you try to bring me down?
You seem intent for your love to be a battle ground
Don't work like that; when you want someone you have to show it
Don't work like that; when you're with someone, you let them know it
Why'd you knock me down, while others try to beat me down
This ain't no ring, a ding-ding, another round!
Don't work like that; you know it's insane!

Chorus
I won't go down, see I've finally found myself
Got my life in my hands, got a future ahead
You can shout, you can scream, you can bitch
No! I won't go

Instrumental

Chorus
No! I won't go down, see I've finally found myself
Got my life in my hands, got a future ahead
You can shout, you can scream, you can bitch
No! I won't go down see I've finally found myself
Got my life in my hands, got a future ahead
You can shout, you can scream, you can bitch
No! I won't go down!
