Lyrics

I don't wanna feel the pain anymore
I don't wanna feel the whip across my spine
Don't wanna be tied up, captive, chained to the hurt inside
Don't you know I wanna live again
Like a man is supposed to
I don't wanna be a slave anymore
I don't wanna be a slave for you

It's an American tragedy
Don't you know that it's a cryin' shame
All that's left is your memory
Bittersweet tears of joy and pain
Don't give a damn about the good times
Because they make it so hard to bear
Well, you left me for another lover
Now I'm all alone in my despair

And I can still recall the day you turned the key
and locked me in this cold and lonely, wretched misery

I don't wanna feel the pain anymore
I don't wanna feel the whip across my spine
Don't wanna be tied up, captive, chained to the hurt inside
Don't you know I wanna live again
Like a man is supposed to
I don't wanna be a slave anymore
I don't wanna be a slave for you

Well, you were mutha-sumthin' ruthless, baby
Jack the Ripper in high-heeled shoes
You cut me like a razorblade
And still I can't get over you
I keep rememberin' your body, baby
I keep rememberin' your sweet perfume
Instead of thinkin' 'bout the love we used to make
I'm wonderin' who's been f*ckin' you

And I can still recall the day you turned the key
and locked me in this cold and lonely, wretched misery

I don't wanna feel the pain anymore
I don't wanna feel the whip across my spine
Don't wanna be tied up, captive, chained to the hurt inside
Don't you know I wanna live again
Like a man is supposed to
I don't wanna be a slave anymore
I don't wanna be a slave for you

And I can still recall the day you turned the key
and locked me in this cold and lonely, wretched misery

I don't wanna feel the pain anymore
I don't wanna feel the whip across my spine
Don't wanna be tied up, captive, chained to the hurt inside
Don't you know I wanna live again
Like a man is supposed to
I don't wanna be a slave anymore
I don't wanna be a slave for you
