I'll Be Damned
Don’t let them pull you in
Don’t fall victim to their selfish lies
Like snakes with poison tongues,
Don’t feed their hungry eyes
Because I’ll be damned they hunt you
Don’t live your life by the vision of others
Paint the picture that you so proudly see
Forsake the very ground
Be exactly what you want to be
Because I’ll be damned if they blind you
Don’t tune out your heart
Listen to its thunderous beat
Take heed to each and every word
The truth that is never offbeat
Because I’ll be damned if they mute you
Don’t lock yourself away
Don’t let those four walls close in
You belong in this world without question
So break free from your tired skin
Because I’ll be damned if they cage you
Don’t turn your back on me
Don’t let them pick and choose
Wake up and kill the machine
See now that you’ve been used
Because I’ll be damned if I can’t save you
