When you're one of 24 but your odds are 20,000 against you
And the man you trust your life with, the man that you came with has betrayed you
You're the tribute from your district, a volunteer to protect the ones you love
And everyone's seeing that you're dying, and there's nothing that is coming from above
And you know you're losing hope, and you know you can't hold on any longer
But you've got your pin of courage, and 100,000 people behind you
When you're the simple sign of hope, but you're hopeless
And you're trying you're best to stay focused
Well, know you're not alone, you're not alone
And when the night falls, all you have are trees
You try you're best to get a good nights sleep
But when you're being hunted, you find it kind of hard relax
Haunted by the thought that the next day could be your last
It may feel like the whole world's against you, and so what if they are
All the best rebellions, are about something worth fighting for
While not very many people care if you live or die
Those you thought against you, are really by your side
Oh Know you're not alone, you're not alone
All you need's a spark, to change the world forever
I'll call you a hero as long as that change is for the better
The world needs people who put others infront of themselves
The world needs people who will stand and fight the wolves
Even when they know that this battle will be their last
They've always got hope that the cause that they fought for will last
And if this battle ends me, dont let the world change me
I died being me, and that's what I want to be
Cause I know I'm not alone, I'm not alone
Oh I know I'm not alone, I'm not alone
