The letters you wrote me had hollow-point headers
If you think you´ve got it like that
Find somebody better
You said I need fixing
You numbered the stages
But I won´t be living in one of your cages
Open your mind and understand...

[Chorus]
When you´re hard on me
It´s not what I need
We were meant to be untamed
Up on my feet

Born to run free
And there´s nobody taming me

I´ve outgrown the narrow, protective container
Designed to be opened
With your childish behavior
´Cause you´re not the critic of personal purpose
And I´m just not willing to do community service
I don´t know why you lay it on...

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
You say - that I should lend a shoulder
Right now - ´cause your whole world is blowing up
Go ahead but I won´t be your soldier
´Cause you´re the one who started up
You´re the one who started up...

[Chorus]
