lyrics

I see no reason why we couldn’t take a chance.
Going ‘round and ‘round, we play the game.
We’ve been here before, down the same old road.
They’re trying to bring me down, to fit the mold.

Damned If You Do, Damned If You Don’t.
Damned If You Do.

The same old souls always travel in packs.
Living life and never looking back.
Free spirit, go on ahead and fly.
Take your rank among the golden sky.

Don’t try and save me from myself because I won’t yield.
Don’t give a damn, it’s on me, I won’t fold.

So let it be.
Fly free.
Chase the wind around again.

And hold on, hold on.
