i am pleased to tell you things   that you don't want to hear   let's talk about freedom   and why you feel you've got it bad   when you've got it good   you're misunderstood   just sink that drips life from the faucet   every now and then   can't play pretend   and it tears you up inside   you scream for lullabies   and arrowheads   i'm afraid that you'll misbehave   and i'll keep calling you and i'll write you   but you'll be gone      so promise me this, promise me that   you'll keep fighting and i'll keep writing   i don't wanna be the little girl smiling   through the bars while inside you're crying   hold me, save me, please change me   well, we don't change   we only rearrange      some may say we're weak   we are just tactics   that carve out space   we have no strategy in place   i disagree   we're meant to be all that we can be   and if that's not enough for you   it's enough for me      so promise me this, promise me that   you'll keep fighting and i'll keep writing   i don't wanna be the little girl smiling   through the bars while inside you're crying   hold me, save me, please change me   well, we don't change   we only rearrange   x2
