Gavin DeGraw - Untamed Lyrics






The letters you wrote me had 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
Up on my feet

Born to run free
And there's nobody taming me

I've outgrown the narrow, protective container
Designed to be opened
With your childish behavior
'Cause you're not the critic of personal purpose
And I'm just not willing to do community service
I don't know why you lay it on...

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
You say - that I should lend a shoulder
Right now - 'cause your whole world is blowing up
Go ahead but I won't be your soldier
'Cause you're the one who started up
You're the one who started up...

[Chorus]

    Untamed

    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

    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
    Cause 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

    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, cause your whole world is blowing up
    Go ahead, but I won't be your soldier
    Cause you're the one who started up,
    You're the one who started up

    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.

    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.

    Because nobody's taming me

    We were meant, we were meant to be untamed.

    We were meant, we were meant to be
    We were meant to be untamed

    Oh, oh

    From the moment I heard Belief, I'm already a fan. For others it may take some time to get used to his music, but then again, I think his magic and his music is not for everyone. If you want great music with thoughtful lyrics that you could hum and even contemplate after hearing it, then DeGraw is for you. :)

    every song he writes is just magically genius, and he plays those instruments like a true blue-eyed musician
    forever in love with him
    if only half of the people would acknowledge it, it'd be more than great
