We're all trying to find Some kind of peace of mind We've gone the distance and more And yes, we've been here before We've all stood in the rain Endured all kinds of pain Don't try to suggest That you know how to do it best All the dos and the don'ts They paint us in a corner Now's the time to express Don't paint me in a corner All the dos and the don'ts They paint us in a corner Now's the time to express Don't paint me in a corner Have you looked around To see your life come tumbling down? Felt deep to your soul So broken like you'll never be whole? How do we begin To heal the hurt you're feeling within? All the dos and the don'ts They paint us in a corner Now's the time to express Don't paint me in a corner All the dos and the don'ts They paint us in a corner Now's the time to express Don't paint me in a corner All the dos and the don'ts They paint us in a corner Now's the time to express Don't paint me in a corner All the dos and the don'ts They paint us in a corner Now's the time to express Don't paint me in a corner
