I never thought these broken axes were a sign not to digress, Keep your thoughts open on the topic, to your hands I will confess. The dealings of our years once past, through my fist I will protest, Actions keeping me from breathing, unhinge your anchor from my neck.
I’m not afraid to speak these words, I will defend the thoughts they bring And I will fight to speak these words, and I will fight to live these words.
Never again will I say that it’s all right to bring me down, Never again will I be that, it’s all right to knock me down. Never again will I say that it’s all right to bring me down, Never again will I be that, it’s all right to knock me down.
These broken axes were the words that you tried to convey, These broken axes were the words that you tried to make me say. These broken axes were the words that you tried to convey, These broken axes were the words that you tried to make me say.
Through my fist I will protest, Actions keeping me from breathing, Unhinge your anchor from my neck, Your anchor from my neck.
Never again will I say that it’s all right to bring me down, Never again will I be that, it’s all right to knock me down. Never again will I say that it’s all right to bring me down, Never again will I be that, it’s all right to knock me down.
I’m not afraid to speak these words, I will defend the thoughts they bring And I will fight to speak these words, and I will fight to live these words.
Never again will I say that it’s all right to bring me down, Never again will I be that, it’s all right to knock me down. Never again will I say that it’s all right to bring me down, Never again will I be that, it’s all right to knock me down.
