The Undone

THE UNDONE — Acoustic Invasion
They said it was finished. They were wrong.
"The Undone" is about what's left standing after everything's been torn down — not survival as triumph, but survival as defiance. About being written off, buried, counted out, and refusing to stay that way.
Lyrics:
[Intro]
Whoa...oh...oh...
Woah, woah, woah
WOAH—OH—OH!
WE! WILL! NOT! KNEEL!
[Verse 1]
The roof came down, the wires sparked
We learned to breathe beside the wreckage
Every promise hit the floor
Every bright idea turned to embers
They drew the lines across our backs
They marked the ones they meant to bury
We took the weight, we took the blows
And kept our hands upon the hammer
[Chorus]
WHO'S COMING TO SAVE US
WHEN WE'RE THE ONES WHO SET IT ALIGHT?
WE'LL BURN WHAT THEY BUILT
AND BUILD WITH WHAT SURVIVES
NO—WE WON'T BEND
NO—WE WON'T BREAK
CALL US THE UNDONE
CALL US THE UNDONE
[Bridge]
They drew the plans
They named the walls
They measured every inch of failure
They stacked the beams and torched the plan
Then dared the ash to hold its ground
We're not finished
WE'RE NOT FINISHED!
[Breakdown]
WE WERE FINISHED.
WE WERE DONE.
SO THEY SAID.
BUT LOOK AROUND—
WE'RE STILL HERE.
THE END
DIDN'T END US.
[Final Chorus]
WHO'S COMING TO SAVE US
WHEN WE'RE THE ONES WHO SET IT ALIGHT?
WE'LL BURN WHAT THEY BUILT
AND BUILD WITH WHAT SURVIVES
CALL US THE UNDONE!
CALL US THE UNDONE!
