Dont Tell Me Short lyrics

we don`t need any more mountains
because the trail builders
failed to give us passage there
so we can`t reach the sky
we don`t need any more failure
there is human tragedy
that`s written everywhere
and we are all too young to die
like a mystery that`s here to stay
some people never go away
cuz they`ve got something to say
don`t sell me short!
you`ve been wrong too long
don`t brush me off
just because I don`t belong
like it or not I`m all you`ve got,
dispose when I`m shot
just don`t sell me short,
I might not be who you thought
we don`t need any more fables
because the writers have passed
and left us lessonless
and we must find our own way
we don`t need any more privilege
there is vivid desperation
that is powerless
that no surplus can repay
like the fix of rapture in a trance
oh, fates are sealed by circumstance
so you`ve got to take a chance
don`t sell me short!
you`ve been wrong too long
don`t brush me off
just because I don`t belong
pass me on by, ignore my cry,
forget me when I die
just don`t sell me short,
not while I`m still alive
everybody`s talking about heaven on earth,
I`m still trying to figure out
just what I`m worth
I`m full of emotion
and stuff you can`t contain
and you just want to
flush me down the drain
but you can`t make me go away
