NOT GONNA DIE
Death surrounds
My heart beat slowing down
I won't take this world's abuse
I won't give up I refuse

This is how it feels when you're bent and broken
This is how it feels when your dignity's stolen
When everything you love is leaving
You hold on to what you believe in

The last thing I heard
Was you whispering goodbye
And then I heard you flat-line

No
Not gonna die tonight
We're gonna stand and fight forever
Don't close your eyes
No
Not gonna die tonight
We're gonna fight for us together
No, we're not gonna die tonight

Break their hold
Cause I won't be controlled
They can't keep their chains on me
When the truth has set me free

This is how it feels when you take your life back
This is how it feels when you finally fight back
When life pushes me, I push harder
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger

Don't you give up on me
You're everything I need
This is how it feels when you take your life back
This is how it feels when you fight back

Not gonna die
Not gonna die
Not gonna die tonight

Guess who survived multiple s*icide attempts and hasn't self harmed since August 14th, 2019 thanks to this band.

I cannot tell you how happy I am to find your music today! I’m disabled and live in chronic pain and some days are so hard I don’t know if I can do it. Your music will help me more than words could express. Thank you for going on RAV today for your book or I never would have known about you! Conservative stations need more of your messages!

I consider myself an Atheist, but what I love about Skillet is how they focus not so much on the religious aspect, but rather the good morals of a Christian. They care more about life as it is and how it should be cherished.

Lyrics:

Death surrounds
My heartbeat's slowing down
I won't take this world's abuse
I won't give up, I refuse
This is how it feels when you're bent and broken
This is how it feels when your dignity's stolen
When everything you love is leaving
You hold on to what you believe in

The last thing I heard was you whispering goodbye
And then I heard you flatline

No, not gonna die tonight
We're gonna stand and fight forever
(Don't close your eyes)
No, not gonna die tonight
We're gonna fight for us together
No, we're not gonna die tonight

Break their hold
'Cause I won't be controlled
They can't keep their chains on me
When the truth has set me free
This is how it feels when you take your life back
This is how it feels when you finally fight back
When life pushes me I push harder
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger

The last thing I heard was you whispering goodbye
And then I heard you flatline

No, not gonna die tonight
We're gonna stand and fight forever
(Don't close your eyes)
No, not gonna die tonight
We're gonna fight for us together
No, we're not gonna die tonight

Don't you give up on me
You're everything I need
This is how it feels when you take your life back
This is how it feels when you fight back

No, not gonna die tonight
We're gonna stand and fight forever
(Don't close your eyes)
No, not gonna die tonight
We're gonna fight for us together
No, we're not gonna die tonight

No, we're not gonna die tonight
Not gonna die
(Not gonna die)
Not gonna die
(Not gonna die)
Not gonna die tonight

3:10 don't close your eyes.. what a voice, she is perfect!!

[約翰里斯]

Is it me just or every time skillet makes a song its a "Perfect song"?

[bariiaj]

I'm *SICK OF IT*
the *WHISPERS IN THE DARK, *
from that *MONSTER* in the corner.
Made of *FIRE AND FURY, *
I'm falling *INSIDE THE BLACK.*
But I will *RISE, *
I will soon be *AWAKE AND ALIVE.*
No longer *COMATOSE, *
because my *HERO* will save me now.
I know I'm *NOT GONNA DIE* tonight.

This is the only band that has given me strength through the years. Their music and their message got me through a divorce, a struggling business, an alcohol addiction....all at the same time! They helped me to 12 years of sobriety, NOT GONNA DIE

[thegratedsoda]

When I'm sad, I always turn on the Skillet and I feel good. Their music is a cradle for me. I always turn them on before going to bed, and fall asleep to their music.

[zmanslasher]

Before my grandma passed away I started listening to skillet and when I got the news this was the only thing I listened to for months. that was 3 years ago and every rime I here this song I get freaky close to crying.

[TheHestya]

I'm an atheist and Skillet has been my favorite band since I was like 13. I didn't know they were a Christian Rock band then and didn't care to find out until today. Still the favorite band. Still love the songs. 

[Rebecca-Claire]

The Fight goes on. Thank you God for all my beautiful blessings! Christ Jesus IS close to the broken hearted.

Death surrounds
My heartbeat’s slowing down
I won’t take this world’s abuse
I won’t give up or refuse
This is how it feels when you’re bent and broken
This is how it feels when your dignity’s stolen
When everything you love is leaving
You hold on to what you believe in

The last thing I heard was you whispering goodbye
And then I heard you flatline

No, not gonna die tonight
We’ve gotta stand and fight forever
(Don’t close your eyes)
No, not gonna die tonight
We gotta fight for us together
No, we’re not gonna die tonight

Break their hold
Cause I won’t be controlled
The can’t keep their chains on me
When the truth has set me free
This is how it feels when you take your life back
This is how it feels when you finally fight back
When life pushes me I push harder
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger

The last thing I heard is you whispering goodbye
And then I heard you flatline

No, not gonna die tonight
We’ve gotta stand and fight forever
(Don’t close your eyes)
No, not gonna die tonight
We gotta fight for us together
No, we’re not gonna die tonight

Don’t you give up on me
You’re everything I need
This is how it feels when you take your life back
This is how it feels when you fight back




No, not gonna die tonight
We’ve gotta stand and fight forever
(Don’t close your eyes)
No, not gonna die tonight
We gotta fight for us together
No, we’re not gonna die tonight
No, we’re not gonna die tonight

Not gonna die
(Not gonna die)
Not gonna die
(Not gonna die)
Not gonna die tonight

A message to the future generations. Don't let this movie die.
