Broken Down Dam letra

I'll never give in to the cold
Riffs are just ribbons of time
I'm weathered beyond my control
But lately I show all the signs

Concrete and steel to the core
Built to withstand and retain
The pressure this world has in store
I'm a broken-down dam in the rain

Don't make the town fear over flooding
Don't let them fear you at all
Just keep your head down while the waves crash around you
And don't let one single drop fall

I've had about all I can take
I ain't the kind to complain
But why doesn't anyone pray
For a broken-down dam in the rain

You may feel the warmth of the Sun on my face
But you can't know the weight on my back
Oh, beware of the fair weather, buddy
You just better be somewhere else when it cracks
