lyrics

DON’T LET THEM COLLECT YOU

Don’t let them collect you
Don’t let them collect you
They’re just trying to get you
Put you on their shelf

No one’s gonna protect you
No one’s coming to the rescue
They’re just dying to dissect you
So you better take care of yourself

I’m sorry if I upset you
I didn’t see them possess you
I didn’t believe they could infect you
Turn you into something else
There upon their shelf
