I been pushed, I been shoved too long
They even tried to buy my song
But it ain't gonna be that way no more
I been hurt, I been shut inside
I've even tried to fix and die
But I'm just gonna kick out through that door

Yeah, tell me lies and place
Your loving arms around me

I've been caged like a wild cat
By fools who don't know where it's at
But it ain't gonna be that way no more
In my head, there's a cry of pain
I wear my heart out and kill my brain
But I'm just kick out through that door

Yeah, tell me lies and place
Your loving arms around me
Don't it make ya, make ya
Wanna open up and bleed?

I'm a bitter man, but anyone can see
You won't get me down on my knees
