dont damn me
when i speak a piece of my mind
cause silence isnt golden
when im holding it inside
cause ive been where i have been
an ive seen what i have seen
i put the pen to the paper
cause its all a part of me
be it a song or casual conversation
to hold my tongue speaks
of quiet reservations
your words once heard
they can place you in a faction
my words may disturb
but at least theres a reaction
sometimes i wanna kill
sometimes i wanna die
sometimes i wanna destroy
sometimes i wanna cry
sometimes i could get even
sometimes i could give up
sometimes i could give
sometimes i never give a fuck
its only for a while
i hope you understand
i never wanted this to happen
didnt want to be a man
so i hid inside my world
i took what i could find
i cried when i was lonely
i fell down when i was blind
but dont damn me
when i speak a piece of my mind
cause silence isnt golden
when im holding it inside
cause ive been where i have been
an ive seen what i have seen
i put the pen to the paper
cause its all a part of me
how can i ever satisfy you
an how can i ever make you see
that deep inside were all somebody
an it dont matter who you wanna be
but now i gotta smile
i hope you comprehend
for this man can say it happened
cause this child has been
condemned
so i stepped into your world
i kicked you in the mind
an im the only witness
to the nature of my crime
but look at what weve done
to the innocent and young
whoa listen to whos talking
cause were not the only ones
the trash collected by the eyes
and dumped into the brain
said it tears into our
conscious thoughts
you tell me whos to blame
i know you dont wanna hear me cryin
an i know you dont wanna hear me deny
that your satisfaction lies in your illusions
but your delusions are yours and not mine
we take for granted we know the whole story
we judge a book by its cover
and read what we want
between selected lines
dont hail me
an dont idolize the ink
or ive failed in my intentions
can you find the missing link
your only validation is living your own life
vicarious existence is a fucking waste of time
so i send this song to the offended
i said what i meant and ive never pretended
as so many others do intending just to please
if i damned your point of view
could you turn the other cheek
but dont damn me
when i speak a piece of my mind
cause silence isnt golden
when im holding it inside
cause ive been where i have been
an ive seen what i have seen
i put the pen to the paper
cause its all a part of me
dont damn me
i said dont damn me
i said dont hail me
dont damn me
