Speak in Lyrics

[Gemme]

He been gone since 3:30
Been coming home lately at 3:30
I'm super cool, I've been a fool
But now I'm hot and baby, you gon' get it

Now I ain't tripping, I ain't twisted
I ain't demented, well, just a lil' bit
I'm kicking ***, I'm taking names
I'm on flame, don't come home, babe

I'm breaking dishes up in here, all night
I ain't gon' stop until I see police lights
I'ma fight a man tonight, I'ma fight a man tonight
I'ma fight a man, a man, a m-a-n
A man, a man, a m-a-n

I'm still waiting, come through the door
I'm killing time, you know, bleaching your clothes
I'm roasting marshmallows on the fire
And what I'm burning is your attire

I'm getting restless, I'm getting tested
And I can't believe he's always out every night and never checks in
Is he cheating? Man, I don't know
I'm looking 'round for something else to throw

I'm breaking dishes up in here, all night
I ain't gon' stop until I see police lights
I'ma fight a man tonight, I'ma fight a man tonight
I'ma fight a man, a man, a m-a-n
A man, a man, a m-a-n

I don't know who you think I am
But I really don't give a damn right now
If you don't come I'ma huff and puff and blow this, blow this, oh
Blow this, blow this, I'ma blow this, blow this, oh
Blow this, blow this, I'ma blow this, blow this, oh
Blow this house, house down!
Dishes breaking, dishes breaking, dishes

I'm breaking dishes up in here, all night
I ain't gon' stop until I see police lights
I'ma fight a man tonight, I'ma fight a man tonight
I'ma fight a man, a man, a m-a-n
A man, a man, a m-a-n
A man, a man, a m-a-n
A man, a man, a m-a-n

Breaking, breaking, breaking, breaking
Dishes, dishes, dishes
Breaking, breaking, breaking, breaking
Dishes, dishes, dishes

[TickledPink]

She lit a burner on the stove
And offered me a pipe
"I thought you'd never say hello", she said
"You look like the silent type"

Then she opened up a book of poems
And handed it to me
Written by an Italian poet
From the thirteenth century

And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burnin' coal
Pourin' off of every page
Like it was written in my soul, from me to you
Tangled up in blue

[shadows papa]

I can see her lyin'
back in her satin dress
in a room where ya do
what ya don't confess

Sundown ya better take care
if I find you been creepin'
'round my back stairs



She's been lookin' like a
queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say
what she really means

Sometimes I think it's a shame
when I get feelin' better
when I'm feelin' no pain



I can picture every move
that a man could make
Getting lost in her lovin'
is your first mistake

Sundown ya better take care
if I find you been creepin'
'round my back stairs
Sometimes I think it's a sin
when I feel like I'm winnin'
when I'm losin again



I can see her lookin' fast
in her faded jeans
She's a hard lovin' woman
got me feelin' mean

Sometimes I think it's a shame
when I get feelin' better
when I'm feelin' no pain

Sundown ya better take care
if I find you been creepin'
'round my back stairs



Sometimes I think it's a sin
when I feel like I'm winnin'
when I'm losin' again

[TickledPink]

It doesn't mean much
It doesn't mean anything at all
The life I've left behind me is a cold room

I've crossed the last line
From where I can't return
Where every step I took in faith betrayed me
And led me from my home

And sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give

Take me in, no question's asked
You strip away the ugliness that surrounds me
(Who are you?)
Are you an angel?

Am I already that gone?
I only hope that I won't disappoint you
When I'm down here on my knees
(Who are you?)

And sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give
(Who are you?)

And sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give

Don't understand
The touch of your hand
I would be the one to fall
I miss the little things
I miss everything about you

Doesn't mean much
It doesn't mean anything at all
The life I left behind me is a cold room
(Who are you?)

And sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give
(Who are you?)

And sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give

[PinkieLee]

I know these corners, I know these streets
The curb-side Prophet there yelling at me
He can save my soul for a drink and a dollar
Yeah, he's yelling about my tattoos
But we all live with the scars we choose
They might hurt like hell, but they all make us stronger

[Sybelle]

Children, wake up
Hold your mistake up
Before they turn the summer into dust

If the children don't grow up
Our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up
We're just a million little gods causing rainstorms
Turning every good thing to rust

[Kimbo]

You could be walking down the street one day and forget to look the other way.
Suddenly everything you ever had comes within 2 inches of a taxi cab.
There comes a time when you gotta ask yourself,
“Where am I going? What have I done?”

Are you living the life that you always dreamed of?
Giving your time to the ones who make you smile?
Making your world worthwhile?
Are you living the life?
Are you making the most of the chance you’re given or just barely getting by?
Give it your best try. Are you living the life?

[Write14u]

Too much time on the road listening to the 80s station nearby. *grin*



I can promise you tomorrow
But I can't buy back yesterday ...

I'll be there for you.
These five words I swear to you.

[Gemme]

I, I'm driving black on black
Just got my license back
I got this feeling in my veins this train is coming off the track
I'll ask polite if the devil needs a ride
Because the angel on my right ain't hanging out with me tonight
I'm driving past your house while you were sneaking out
I got the car door opened up so you can jump in on the run
Your mom don't know that you were missing
She'd be pissed if she could see the parts of you that I've been kissing
Screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple of animals

So come on baby, get in
Get in, just get in
Check out the trouble we're in

You're beside me on the seat
Got your hand between my knees
And you control how fast we go by just how hard you wanna squeeze
It's hard to steer when you're breathing in my ear
But I got both hands on the wheel while you got both hands on my gears
By now, no doubt that we were heading south
I guess nobody ever taught her not to speak with a full mouth
'Cause this was it, like flicking on a switch
It felt so good I almost drove into the ditch
I'm screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple of animals

So come on baby, get in
Get in, just get in
Look at the trouble we're in

We were parked out by the tracks
We're sitting in the back
And we just started getting busy
When she whispered "what was that?"
The wind, I think 'cause no one else knows where we are
And that was when she started screamin'
"That's my dad outside the car!"
Oh please, the keys, they're not in the ignition
Must have wound up on the floor while
we were switching our positions
I guess they knew that she was missing
As I tried to tell her dad it was her mouth that I was kissing
Screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple of animals

So come on baby, get in
We're just a couple of animals
Get in, just get in
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Check out the trouble we're in
Get in, just get in

[TickledPink]

She'll let you in her house
If you come knockin late at night
She'll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
She'll let you deep inside
But there's a secret garden she hides

She'll let you in her car
To go drivin round
She'll let you into the parts of herself
That'll bring you down
She'll let you in her heart
If you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, don't think twice

Youve gone a million miles
How far'd you get
To that place where you can't remember
And you can't forget

She'll lead you down a path
There'll be tenderness in the air
She'll let you come just far enough
So you know she's really there
She'll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
Shes got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay
A million miles away

[MrSunshine]

Well, there was a time when you let me know
What’s really going on below
But now you never show that to me, do ya?
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was hallelujah

[JakeTulane]

Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man
Your man

[violaine]

. . . so don't make me say it
it would burst the bubble
break the charm. . .

[moxie]

Love takes hostages,
Gives them pain.
Gives someone the power to
Hurt you again and again
Oooh, but they don't care

And if they're lucky and they'll,
They'll get to see and if they're
Really really lucky they'll
They'll get to feel.
And if they're, they're truly blessed
And they're get to believe
And if you're dammed, you'll never
Let yourself be diseased.

And it kicks so hard,
It breaks your bones.
Cuts so deep
It hits your soul.
Tears your skin and
Makes your blood flow.
It's better that you know,
That love is hard.

[shadows papa]

Storms never last do they baby
Bad times all pass with the wind
Your hand in mine stills the thunder
And you make the sun want to shine.

You followed me down so many roads baby
I've picked wild flowers and sung you soft sad songs
And every road we took God knows
Our search was for the truth
And the clouds brewing now won't be the last.

Storms never last do they baby
Bad times all pass with the wind
Your hand in mine stills the thunder
And you make the sun want to shine.

Storms never last do they Jessi
Bad times all pass with the wind
Your hand in mine stills the thunder
And you make the sun want to shine...

And all the things hy said,
visions of her lying there
without someone to hear hys

Hy slips off into
a dream about a
place to hide

And that's ok
Hy don't want the world.


This love hy feels
everything hy's ever
known or ever thought
was real

Seems like it's been
thrown away now
how's hy gonna live

It's ok. Hy don't
want the world.


Those words hy never
spoke
Hold a life of memories
of all the times before

Hy tried to show her
love... wishes hy could
have gave her more

But it's ok. Hy
don't want the world.


Softly in his sleep
pictures of a life hy's
longing forcelly appear

Hy's seen them all
before but somehow
never quite this clear

Hy just smiles
Hy don't want
the world.


This love hy feels
everything hy's ever
known or ever thought
was real

Seems like it's been
thrown away now
how's hy gonna live

It's ok. Hy don't
want the world.


A brand new morning
shines
Hy wakes up alone again
this time to face the day

Hy swears this time
to make it as hy
simply walks away

And that's ok
Hy don't want the world.

"you don't know
the PAIN
I FEEL
inside"

[Mister Bent]

Sidewalk crouches at her feet
Like a dog that begs for something sweet
Do you hope to make her see you, fool?
Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel?

[violaine]

... the misplaced afternoon
dressed itself in cold

behind the misted windows
all the children see
a yellow tree changing
into birds

the afternoon is stretching out
along the river.
and an apple bush
trembles on the little roofs. . .

[Write14u]

So lay here beside me just hold me and don't let go
this feelin' I'm feelin' is something I've never known
and I just can't take my eyes off you and I just can't take my eyes off you

[Sybelle]

But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will
