[Verse 1]
Before this merry dance is through
Stain my name like a tattoo
Make a mark and leave no doubt
Give them stuff to talk about
And before last orders call
Let them say I did it all
No wasted opportunities
No what-ifs or apologies

[Chorus]
Oh rattle
Rattle and roar
Found a war worth battling for
I won't leave this world before
I left a trail of rattle and roar

[Verse 2]
No practice run, this is for real
From the shoulder to the wheel
Kill regret and try the lot
And never let it be forgot
Turn the volume up to full
Hear it from LA to Hull
When finally they come for me
I won't be going quietly

[Chorus]
Oh rattle
Rattle and roar
Found a war worth battling for
I won't leave this world before
I left a trail of rattle and roar

[Bridge]
Take a leap and take my hand
Take our chances while we can
Through all the time I shot and missed
I remain an optimist

[Chorus]
Oh rattle
Rattle and roar
Found a war worth battling for
I won't leave this world before
I left a trail of rattle and roar

[Chorus]
Oh rattle
Rattle and roar
Found a war worth battling for
I won't leave this world before
I left a trail of rattle and roar
