[Verse 1]
You walk in the room and stand on dangerous ground
You're  looking for a light which turns without a sound
You're  searching for a life, but there's no one around
Welcome to your life, so strange
You look for an answer that you thought was in a book
Someone  knocks the door and tells you that you're stuck
You  go to the window and try to take a look
Inside your mind, it starts to rain

[Chorus]
I'm  not gonna take it, I'm not gonna take it
I'm not gonna take it, yeah

[Verse 2]
Try to take a break, but they lay the law down (O-oh)
That's not what they're thinking in your favourite town (O-oh)
You  try to escape, but you know, you're going down
Spending all your life in chains

[Chorus]
I'm not gonna take it, I'm not gonna take it
I'm not gonna take it, yeah

[Verse 3]
You walk in the room and stand on dangerous ground
You're looking for a light which turns without a sound
You're searching for a life, but there's no one around
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna take it, I'm not gonna take it
I'm not gonna take it, yeah
I'm not gonna take it, I'm not gonna take it
I'm not gonna take it, yeah

[Outro]
I'm not gonna take it, yeah
I'm not gonna take it
