Untamed

Gavin DeGraw · Gavin Degraw [2008]

The letters you wrote me have 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

I'm on my feet, wanna run free

because nobody's taming me.



I'm out from the narrow protective container

designed to be opened with your childish behavior

'cuz you're not the critic of personal purpose

and I'm just not willin' to community service

i don't know why you lay it on



CHORUS

when you're hard on me, it's not what i need

we were meant to be untamed

I'm on my feet, wanna run free

because nobody's taming me



you say that i should lend a shoulder

right now, 'cuz your whole world is blowing up

go ahead, but i won't be your soldier

'cuz you're the one who started up,

you're the one who started up



CHORUS

when you're hard on me, it's not what i need

we were meant to be untamed

I'm on my feet, wanna run free

because nobody's taming me [x2]



we were meant, we were meant to be untamed.



we were meant, we were meant to be

we were meant to be untamed [x2]



oh, ohhh.
