Bad Religion - Don't Sell Me Short Lyrics
We dont need any more mountainsBecause the trail buildersFailed to give us passage thereSo we cant reach the skyWe dont need any more failureThere is human tragedyThats written everywhereAnd we are all too young to dieLike a mystery thats here to staySome people never go awayCuz theyve got something to sayDont sell me short!Youve been wrong too longDont brush me offJust because I dont belongLike it or not Im all youve got,Dispose when Im shotJust dont sell me short,I might not be who you thoughtWe dont need any more fablesBecause the writers have passedAnd left us lessonlessAnd we must find our own wayWe dont need any more privilegeThere is vivid desperationThat is powerlessThat no surplus can repayLike the fix of rapture in a tranceOh, fates are sealed by circumstanceSo youve got to take a chanceDont sell me short!Youve been wrong too longDont brush me offJust because I dont belongPass me on by, ignore my cry,Forget me when I dieJust dont sell me short,Not while Im still aliveEverybodys talking about heaven on earth,Im still trying to figure outJust what Im worthIm full of emotionAnd stuff you cant containAnd you just want toFlush me down the drainBut you cant make me go away
