Lyrics

Chorus

They own the games, they own the fight

Pullin' strings in the dead of night

Force us to kill for their twisted delight

But we won't bow, no, we ignite

(ignite, ignite)

Break the chains, yeah, we unite

No more games, no more fight

Verse

District kids, scraped knees and coal dust nails

Huntin' in the woods where the wild wind wails

Two hours of light, buzzin' like a storm

Touch it wrong, and your dreams get torn

Capitol laughs from their towers so high

Sacrificin' our young, watchin' 'em die

"Nothin' you can do," they sneer from the screen

Lift a hand, and you're wiped clean

Chorus

They own the games, they own the fight

Pullin' strings in the dead of night

Force us to kill for their twisted delight

But we won't bow, no, we ignite

(ignite, ignite)

Break the chains, yeah, we unite

No more games, no more fight

Verse

Peeta whispers, "They don't own me"

But the arena calls, blood on the tree

"I'll kill like the rest," heart heavy with dread

Puppets on strings till we're cold and dead

Poor man's hunger, empty plates at dawn

Miners coughin' black, workin' till they're gone

No bread, no peace, just the reaper's call

Rise up now, tear down the wall

Bridge

No more controllin', no more dividin'

Work as one, no more hidin'

From the woods to the square, hear the people roar

Peace over blood, forevermore

(roar, roar, roar)

Chorus

They own the games, they own the fight

Pullin' strings in the dead of night

Force us to kill for their twisted delight

But we won't bow, no, we ignite

(ignite, ignite)

Break the chains, yeah, we unite

No more games, no more fight

No more games (no more), no more fight (no more)

Outro

Ignite... unite... yeah, we ignite

(ignite, ignite, ignite)
