Guns N Roses – Dont Damn Me Lyrics

Read Time:2 Minute, 42 Second

Dont damn me when I speak a piece of my mind
Cause silence isnt golden when Im holding it inside
Ive been where I have been and Ive seen what I have seen
I put the pen to the paper cause its all a part of me

Be it a song or casual conversation
To hold my tongue speaks of quiet reservations
Your words once heard they can place you in a faction
My words may disturb but at least theres a reaction

Ooh-yeah, ooh-ooh-yeah

Sometimes I wanna kill, sometimes I wanna die
Sometimes I wanna destroy, sometimes I wanna cry
Sometimes I could get even, sometimes I could give up
Sometimes I could give, sometimes I never give a fuck

Its only for a while, I hope you understand
I never wanted this to happen, didnt want to be a man
So I hid inside my world, I took what I could find
I cried when I was lonely, I fell down when I was blind

Dont damn me when I speak a piece of my mind
Cause silence isnt golden when Im holding it inside
Ive been where I have been and Ive seen what I have seen
I put the pen to the paper cause its all a part of me

How can I ever satisfy you?
And how can I ever make you see
That deep inside were all somebody
And it dont matter who you wanna be?

But now I gotta smile I hope you comprehend
For this man can say it happened cause this child has been condemned
So I stepped into your world, I kicked you in the mind
And Im the only witness to the nature of my crime

But look at what weve done to the innocent and young
Whoa, listen to whos talking cause were not the only ones
The trash collected by the eyes and dumped into the brain
Said it tears into our conscious thoughts, you tell me, whos to blame?

I know you dont wanna hear me cryin
And I know you dont wanna hear me deny
That your satisfaction lies in your illusion
But your delusions are yours and not mine

We take for granted we know the whole story
We judge a book by its cover
And read what we want
Between selected lines

Dont hail me and dont idolize the ink
Or Ive failed in my attentions, can you find the missing link?
Your only validation is living your own life
Vicarious existence is a fucking waste of time

So I send this song to the offended
I said what I meant and Ive never pretended
As so many others do intending just to please
If I damned your point of view, could you turn the other cheek?

Dont damn me when I speak a piece of my mind
Cause silence isnt golden when Im holding it inside
Ive been where I have been and Ive seen what I have seen
I put the pen to the paper cause its all a part of me
Dont damn me
I said dont damn me
I said dont hail me
Dont damn me

Smoke em if you got em
Alright! That sucked!
