Madina Lake - Never Take Us Alive

Song: Never Take Us Alive

Artist: Madina Lake

Album: Attics To Eden

Madina Lake is an American rock band formed in Chicago, Illinois.

I first heard of Madina Lake on the internet. I didn't have a clue who they were but I decided to check them out. I downloaded a few songs and quickly became a fan. One of my favorite Madina Lake songs is Never Take Us Alive. I think the song is about being different from what's considered the norm and that it's ok.  If people want to look down on you because of it that's their problem. I really love the lyric "Cause people they'll tear you apart, If you are not like them. And we are different. Let the war begin". I also enjoyed the music video, when I showed it to my Mom she looked at the lead singer and bass player (who are identical twins) and said "There are two of that guy, right?".

"Never Take Us Alive"

Sometimes I feel like I'm from another world,
And everything I want in life seems impossible.
Cause people they'll tear you apart.
But in the bottom of our hearts,
The dream's alive inside.
And we won't forget...

So we say...

You can't break, can't change, can't take us down.
(We run this town)
We'll stand, we'll fight, set fires all night.
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh ohhhhh...
(You'll never take us alive...)

For the last time I'll give myself to the enemy,
By letting their words just walk all over me.
Cause people they'll tear you apart,
If you are not like them.
And we are different.
Let the war begin.

So we say...

You can't break, can't change, can't take us down.
(We run this town)
We'll stand, we'll fight, set fires all night.
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh ohhhhh...
(You'll never take us alive...)

There's no fear inside.
This is our time, no giving up.
When we connect our hearts, to our minds,
There's no stopping us.

So we say...

You can't break, can't change, can't take us down.
(We run this town)
We'll stand, we'll fight, set fires all night.
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh ohhhhh...
(You'll never take us alive...)
