[Intro: Emily Armstrong, Mike Shinoda & Emily Armstrong]

I know all the secrets you keep
I, I won't be
I won't be your casualty
Ooh
(Let's get out alive)
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
I got too complacent
Bleached in the eyes

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Emily Armstrong]
But I'm not runnin'
'Cause something's comin'

[Chorus: Emily Armstrong]
Let me out, set me free
I know all the secrets you keep
I, I won't be
I won't be your casualty
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
You drew the first blood
Like playin' God
Closin' the doors up
While I'm fed to the dogs
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Emily Armstrong]
But I'm not runnin'
'Cause something's comin'
It's only a matter of time
[Chorus: Emily Armstrong]
Let me out, set me free
I know all the secrets you keep
I, I won't be
I won't be your casualty
[Bridge: Emily Armstrong]

It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time
[Breakdown: Mike Shinoda, Mike Shinoda & Emily Armstrong]

I can see the greed right in your eyes
Hangin' on a barefaced lie
It's only a matter of time
[Chorus: Emily Armstrong]
Let me out, set me free
I know all the secrets you keep
I, I won't be
I won't be your casualty
I won't be your casualty
I know all the secrets you keep
I won't be your casualty
