Willow trees bend   but I won't bend   I will never lay down   for every man alive   there's a fire   and for every king a crown      my world's been rocked before   and it will be rocked again   by a tremor or a howling wind   and lord if you demand   if the world at large asks of me   I will surrender to you      we have a power   all animals do   when faced with your fire   I will surrender to you      fun to joy the aim   so we live forever   they may mock us but we do   the river carries on   clouded with what we've done   the deeds of me and you      we have a power   all animals do   when faced with your fire   I will surrender to you
