Andy Biersack - They Don't Need To Understand lyrics

[Verse 1] Young and strong, the voice of my father said "Don't give up, don't be forgotten." This hell on earth I just wanna run away They told me dreams don't grow from here Stay alone Count your fears Somewhere down the line I might figure it out [Pre-Chorus 1] Singing all my songs to bedroom mirrors Deep inside my heart, I'm still here [Chorus] We're always running away And we don't even stop to think about it The world's in our hands Yeah They don't need to understand We do it our own way No matter what they try to say about it We've got our own plans Yeah They don't need to understand They don't need to understand [Verse 2] What made me tough, almost k**ed me At least that's how I remember the story Over the years, I've forgotten how it was But I survived, and I won't walk down The same old road that they all follow It only leads to a life not meant for me [Pre-Chorus 2] Singing all my songs to bedroom mirrors Deep inside my heart, I'm here [Chorus] [Bridge] Streets of my hometown seem strange now They feel like a distant memory I'm always fighting cause I know you're trying But you can never take this dream from me [Chorus] [Outro] They don't need to understand [2x]
