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
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's taming me
I'm 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
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'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
Up on my feet, born to run free
And there's nobody's taming me
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'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
We were meant, we were meant to be, we were meant to be untamed
Oh, oh
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
We were meant to be untamed
Up on my feet, born to run free
And there's nobody's taming me
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
We were meant to be untamed
Up on my feet, born to run free
And there's nobody's taming me
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
We were meant to be untamed
Up on my feet, born to run free
And there's nobody's taming me
We were meant to be untamed
Up on my feet, born to run free
And there's nobody's taming me
We were meant, we were meant to be, we were meant to be untamed
We were meant, we were meant to be, we were meant to be untamed
Oh, oh

Oh, am I first to comment?? :) Well, I love this song. When I first listened to it, I thought it was about having certain freedom in a relationship but Gavin said in an interview that it's also about being yourself and not letting others tell you what to be or what to do.
My favourite line is "I won't be living in one of your cages". Probably my fave song on the new album!
Thanks, I listend to it, and was wondering what it was about and had the same thought as you first (: I absolutely love this song! One of my favorite Gavin DeGraw songs ever!
