DON'T PUT ME IN A BOX

Songbook: Love Songs Songbook
KeyWords: Fight the Good Fight,

Don't you put me in a box,
Don't tie me to the ground,
And don't you put me in a house
With flowers all around,
And don't you try to make of me
What you think I ought to be.

Chorus One:
I'd rather die for something
Than live for nothing,
I'm going to live for love eternally.

And don't you pour me in a mold,
Don't try to fence me in,
And don't you give me all those clothes
I know will never fit,
And I don't want to hear those lies
That complicate my life.

Chorus Two:
I'd rather die for something,
Than live for nothing
I'm going to live my life for something real.
I'd rather die for something,
Than live for nothing,
I'm going to live for love eternally.

Why should I throw my life away?
I want to live to give away God's Love.

So don't you put me in a box,
Don't tie me to the ground,
And don't you put me in a house
With flowers all around,
And don't you try to make of me
What you think I ought to be.

Chorus Three:
I'd rather die for something
Than live for nothing,
I'm going to live my life for something real.
I'd rather die for something
Than live for nothing,
I'm going to live for love, love.
I'd rather die for something
Than live for nothing,
I'm going to live my life for something real.
I'd rather die for something
Than live for nothing,
I'm going to live for love eternally.
