There might be something outside your window
But you'll just never know
There could be something right past the turnpike gates
But you'll just never know

If my velocity starts to make you sweat
Then just don't let go
And if the heaven ain't got a vacancy
Then we just, then we just, then we just, then we just
Get up and go

Ladies and gentleman, truth
Is now acceptable fame
Is now injectable process the progress
This core is critical faith
Is unavailable lives
Become incredible now
Please understand that

I can't slow down,
I won't be waiting for you,
I can't stop now because I'm dancing

This planet's ours to defend
Ain't got no time to pretend
Don't f*ck around, this is our last chance

If my velocity starts to make you sweat
Then just don't let go
'Cause the emergency room got no vacancy
And we just, and we just, and we just, and we just,
Get up and go

(who) they want you to be
(who) they wanted to see
(go) kill the party with me and never go home
Who they want you to be
Who they wanted to see
Just leave the party with me and never go home

You're unbelievable,
Ah, so unbelievable,
Ah, you ruin everything,
Oh, you better go home

I'm unbelievable,
Yeah, I'm undefeatable
Yeah, let's ruin everything, blast it to the back row

They sell presentable,
Young, and so indigestible,
Sterile and collactable
Safe, and I can't stand it
This is a letter, my word,
Is the beretta, the sound of my vendetta,
Against the ones that planned it

If my velocity starts to make you sweat
Then just don't let go
'Cause the emergency room got no vacancy
Tell me who do you trust, do you trust, and we just
We just get up and go

Who they want you to be
Who they wanted to see
(Go) kill the party with me and never go home
Who they want you to be
Who they wanted to see
Just leave the party with me and never go home

You keep eternity, give us the radio
Deploy the battery, we're taking back control
Engage the energy, light up the effigy
No chance to take it slow
By now I'm sure you know, know, know, know, know (one, two, three, four)
Get up and go

(Who) they want you to be
(Who) they wanted to see
(Go) kill the party with me and never go home
Who they want you to be
Who they wanted to see
Just leave the party with me and never go home

Are we still having fun? 
Are you holding the gun? 
Take the money and run
We'll never go home

I've got nothing to lose
You've got nothing to say
And we're leaving today
We'll never go home

I think I better go now
I think I better go now
I think I better go now (go home)
Gonna go now, gonna go now, gonna go now, gonna go now
Go now, gonna go now
Go home
