Don’t Fence Me In
hey don’t fence me in
here on wrong side of history
we see things differently
we tiptoe gingerly
standing up straight is
difficult enough without a
knife jugglers mentality
even though I cant prevent mortality
im done slashing my own throat
im done fighting lost causes
all alone dont fence me in
because I know by now
the best scratching posts
are reserved for the beasts of the field
who will protect me from the power you wield
dont fence me in with your pretty symphony of violence
ive faced the music many times
before whatever that means
the good rally cries are already
taken if you think im going
to step out of the way
and give you control
youre sadly mistaken
I know where evil hides
how do I make this old boy new inside
where are the agents of progress
when you need them the most
the minstrels of truth
to stir the holy ghost
im working my butt off
to corrupt tomorrows youth
dont fence me in
with your false sense of nobility
dont fence me in
with that false sense of security
im doing the right thing
at a time when nobody else
accepts any responsibility
