Chain Quote by P!nk
“Everywhere that I go there's someone waiting to chain me. Everything that I say, there's someone trying to shortchange me. I am only this way cause of what you have made me. And I'm not gonna break. You can push me out the window, I'll just get back up! You can run me over with your 18-wheeler truck and I won't give a fuck. You can hang me like a slave and I'll go underground. You can run me over with your 18-wheeler but you can't keep me down.”
