Shinedown - I Own You Lyrics






Come on in, take a seat
Tell me how you feel this weak
Are you cursed? Are you blessed?
Are you still inside the mess?
All those feelings wrapped around you
Hold you down so you can't break through
It's a trap, so don't ask. It's a shadow on
Your back. It don't burn, it don't bleed
Still it cuts you at the knee
All this pressure that surrounds you
Holds you down but you know you
Gotta break through

Hey, c'est la vie
Remember me? I made you, dressed
And trained you
Hey, it's bitter sweet
You can't kill me with kindness
I don't buy it
Strip down, show me flesh and bone
(Strip Down)
'Cause now I own you

Take a breath, hold it in
Now look up, let's begin
Lesson learned, take a turn
Now you come around again
All those feelings wrapped around you
Hold you down so you can't break through

Time is up, take your shot
'Cause your story's all you got
Don't back down, don't say no
Just exhale and let go
All this pressure that surrounds you
Holds you down but you know
You've gotta break through

Hey, c'est la vie
Remember me? I made you, dressed
And trained you
Hey, it's bitter sweet
You can't kill me with kindness
I don't buy it
Strip down, show me flesh and bone
(Strip down)
'Cause now I own you

(You can't kill me with kindness, no I don't buy it)
Strip down, show your flesh and bone
'Cause now I own you

Hey, c'est la vie
Remember me? I made you, dressed
And trained you
Hey, it's bitter sweet
You can't kill me with kindness
I don't buy it
Strip down, show me flesh and bone
(Strip Down)
'Cause now I own you

Now I own you
Now I own you
Now I own you
You know I own you

Shinedown I Own You Comments
  1. c.... ....

    This song is loaded with information if you know fork tongue, but you bunch of illiterate morons. Strawman he is singing about. I wish to know who is writing those lyrics, because all of their material are double meaning deep-deep shit.

  2. R.... L....

    i know every SHINEDOWN songs but for some reason never heard this song before love this song i listen to it like 10 time in a row love love love this song.

  3. L.... ....

    good song.

  4. p.... g....

    After you listen to this song go listen to you don't own me

  5. G.... Y....

    C’est la vie means “it’s life” for those of you wondering

  6. A.... D....

    I own so many pussies.

  7. T.... ....

    It's like why did it have to come down to this?

  8. u.... n....

    This song sounds a little like about rape or sm or so. But because of the 1st verse i think its more about addiction, depression or other mental sickness. Its a song to fight against that. To own the problems and not let the problems own you.

  9. D.... R....

    Chrous and 2:22 part is my favorite!!😍😍😍 and I always cry when I'm listen to thiiiiis😭😭😭😭

  10. T.... ....

    Perfect BDSM song for those BDSM couples. <3

    T.... ....

    I never viewed the song like that before.

    T.... ....

    TheManEatingToy very

    T.... ....

    My potential Dom just told me he set this as my ringtone 😂

  11. S.... C....

    I'm probably responsible for most of these views

  12. A.... R....

    The only Shinedown song that sounds awesome

    A.... R....

    What about enemies??

    A.... R....

    Jpower nah it's not catchy

    A.... R....

    Son of sam

  13. A.... S....

  14. I.... ....

    My favourite parts 0:00-3:38

  15. N.... R....

    So badass man they rock!

  16. m.... n....

    2:22 love that part!!

    m.... n....

    and 3:23

  17. L.... ....

    I believe this song is about addiction. How it can take everything from us.. stripped down till were flesh and bone.. because when sick in active addiction.. we are owned by it.. this is what I think of and hear Everytime I listen to this song. Many of the songs they have remind me of the hell of it.. but also the miracle that we can get better.. Shed some light on me .. is the song that I almost think was written for me. (I know it wasn't) but I also know I am not alone..

    L.... ....

    Geez. Hope you are doing ok in 2019, m8! Cheers!

  18. T.... H....

    so their gonna own us with lyrics?

    T.... H....

    How to by helpful, do nothing particularly wrong, and still make everyone in the comment section hate you:
    They're*
    (They're is short for they are. As their is referring to possession, you're phrasing isn't correct unless it's a pun. In which case, nice!)

    T.... H....

    +lily childress oh my god I just realized I used you're instead of your. That's brilliantly ironic. I just shed a single tear in appreciation.

    T.... H....

    @lily childress im messing around

  19. L.... d....

    The beginning reminds me of Miracle.

  20. C.... M....

    This is like a mix of Miracle and Through The Ghost, but heavier

  21. S.... C....

    Wow, this song lyrics are sooooo cool

  22. d.... ....

    Shinedown is one of the best bands I have ever heard... and that is really saying something. I have yet to hear a song that does anything but blow me way from these guys. They are amazing live as well. I can't wait to get their live DVD.
