Bm A
color me red, color me coal
E F#
wrap me in black or a snide acid green
Bm A
tell me i'm bad, tell me i'm sick
E F#
scream out your hate, be obsessed and obscene
Bm A
bind me with love, tie me with wire
E F#
wrap me in gauze and then watch as i bleed
Bm A
poison your kiss, kill my desire
E F#
deliver me pain and ignore all my needs
[Pre-Chorus]
G F#
i will not change, i will not alter
[Verse 2]
Bm A
staple my eyes, thrill to my shins
E F#
gag me with lead and tear out all my nails
Bm A
razor my tongue, sew up my mouth
E F#
feed me disease til my functioning fails
[Chorus]
G F#
i will not change, i will not alter
A E
for i am man and i am strong
[Verse 3]
Bm A
do all this to me, i just don't care
E F#
blood is my wine and fear is my friend
Bm A
but please do not say i am not hard
E F#
don't say i can yield, don't say i can bend
[Chorus]
G F#
i will not change, i will not alter
A E
for i am man, i am strong
G F#
i cannot sway, i cannot falter
A E
i must be man, i can't be wrong
[Coda]
Bm A
it's your fuckin' fault, you and your doubts
E F#
made me like this, colored me man
Bm A
color me man
