Broken Down Dam
I'll never give in to the cold
Riffs are just ribbons of time
I'm weathered beyond my control
But lately I show all the signs
Concrete and steel to the core
Built to withstand and retain
The pressure this world has in store
I'm a broken down dam in the rain
Don't make the town fear over flooding
Don't let 'em fear you at all
Just keep your head down while the waves crash around you
And don't let one single drop fall
I've had about all I can take
And I ain't the kind to complain
But why doesn't anyone pray
For a broken down dam in the rain?
You may feel the warmth of the sun on my face
But you can't know the weight on my back
Oh, beware of the fair weather, buddy
You just better be somewhere else when it cracks
Riffs are just ribbons of time
I'm weathered beyond my control
But lately I show all the signs
Concrete and steel to the core
Built to withstand and retain
The pressure this world has in store
I'm a broken down dam in the rain
Don't make the town fear over flooding
Don't let 'em fear you at all
Just keep your head down while the waves crash around you
And don't let one single drop fall
I've had about all I can take
And I ain't the kind to complain
But why doesn't anyone pray
For a broken down dam in the rain?
You may feel the warmth of the sun on my face
But you can't know the weight on my back
Oh, beware of the fair weather, buddy
You just better be somewhere else when it cracks
