Not Ready to Make Nice - The Chicks

Gone cast away in time Evil yours, now evil mine So I robbed you blind The voices in my head could jest a less than peaceful side The endless possibilities controlling 935 You can't break me Crushed the fears of yesterday You can't change me Barriers our trust will fade I've stood in the dark Been waiting all this time While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive I'm not ready to die Damned, watch the masses fall Burn it down, control 'em all Make me crawl To daddy's little girl to read the writings on the wall While cast into the nothingness the final curtain call You can't break me Crushed the fears of yesterday You can't change me Barriers our trust will fade I've stood in the dark Been waiting all this time While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive I'm not ready to die Through the madness we find loyalty is no match for power Save your body or lie Left to rot in your darkest hour Friends won't help you now as long as your mine You can't break me Crushed the fears of yesterday You can't change me Barriers our trust will fade I've stood in the dark Been waiting all this time While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive And I'll control the world one person at a time As I damn the dead I'm trying to survive I'm not ready to die Oh! I'm not ready to die I'm not ready to die! I'm not ready to die! I'm not ready to die!
