[Verse 1]

I don’t need a bad religion

To practice what they preach in church

I don’t need a politician

To teach me how to keep my word

[Refrain]

I bet you like the cage

It makes you feel so safe

You accept your fate

I’m not ready to lay down and die

[Chorus]

There’s still blood in this beating heart

And my tongue still cuts switchblade sharp

Living isn’t living if I can’t live free

You won’t tie your strings on me

[Verse 2]

I don’t need a pill to fix me

Create the poison just to sell the cure

I don’t need a needle in me

No one’s gonna win that war

[Chorus]

There’s still blood in this beating heart

And my tongue still cuts switchblade sharp

Living isn’t living if I can’t live free

You won’t tie your strings on me

[Refrain]

I bet you like the cage

It makes you feel so safe

You accept your fate

I’m not ready to lay down and die

[Chorus]

There’s still blood in this beating heart

And my tongue still cuts switchblade sharp

Living isn’t living if I can’t live free

You won’t tie your strings on me

There’s still blood in this beating heart

And my tongue still cuts switchblade sharp

Living isn’t living if I can’t live free

You won’t tie your strings on me

You won’t tie your strings on me
