Seven Shades

I was born as a free man And now I'm tied to the mast Like the strings of an old guitar I bent out of tune too fast Now as the temperature rises As I baulk on the flames As I come to devices I hear the words that you say Give it up, give it up, give it up Oh, give it up Are you trying to say this world's not beautiful enough? Outside line to a collect call Oh, you say it's easy You do it just to tease me I know I'll send the ghost of a thousand Out of a millions of years I've been the slave to the old song That's ringing in your ear Direct line to all you girls and boys You say that love will free me You say it just to see me give up Give it up, give it up, give it up Oh give it up Are you trying to say this world is not beautiful enough? What's it like on the moral high ground? Judging by your face, I'm glad I never asked Step outside the bar and kick seven shades of shit out of you Outside line to, to all you girls and boys Give it up, give it up, give it up Oh give it up Are you trying to say this world's not beautiful enough? Seven shades of nothing Seven shades of nothing to lose
