Broken axes

I never thought these broken axes were a sign not to
digress,
Keep your thoughts open on the topic, to your hands I
will confess.
The dealings of our years once past, through my fist I
will protest,
Actions keeping me from breathing, unhinge your anchor
from my neck.

I'm not afraid to speak these words, I will defend the
thoughts they bring
And I will fight to speak these words, and I will
fight to live these words.

Never again will I say that it's all right to bring me
down,
Never again will I be that, it's all right to knock me
down.
Never again will I say that it's all right to bring me
down,
Never again will I be that, it's all right to knock me
down.

These broken axes were the words that you tried to
convey,
These broken axes were the words that you tried to
make me say.
These broken axes were the words that you tried to
convey,
These broken axes were the words that you tried to
make me say.

Through my fist I will protest,
Actions keeping me from breathing,
Unhinge your anchor from my neck,
Your anchor from my neck.

Never again will I say that it's all right to bring me
down,
Never again will I be that, it's all right to knock me
down.
Never again will I say that it's all right to bring me
down,
Never again will I be that, it's all right to knock me
down.

I'm not afraid to speak these words, I will defend the
thoughts they bring
And I will fight to speak these words, and I will
fight to live these words.

Never again will I say that it's all right to bring me
down,
Never again will I be that, it's all right to knock me
down.
Never again will I say that it's all right to bring me
down,
Never again will I be that, it's all right to knock me
down.

It's all right to knock me down. [x4]
