Speak in Lyrics

[Selenay]

Am I less of a lady if I don't wear pantyhose?
My mama said a lady ain't what she wears
But what she knows.

But I've drawn a conclusion: it's all an illusion,
Confusion's the name of the game
A misconception, a vast deception
Something's gotta change.

Don't be offended, this is all my opinion
Ain't nothing that I'm sayin law
This is a true confession of a life learned lesson
I was sent here to share with y'all
So get in where you fit in go on and shine

Clear your mind, now's the time
Put your salt on the shelf
Go on and love yourself

[Selenay]

I spent my whole life looking for land
But settled on the breakers
And saw the home that I held in my hand
Was just some dirt inside a scrap of paper
And I know that I should be long gone
And I know, the pills stopped working long ago. . .

[Softly]

Just kids in the eye of the storm
And as my house spun round
My dreams pulled me from the ground
Forever to search for the flame
For home again...

[labete]

I don't want to get up baby, let's turn off the phone
I don't want to go to work today or even put my makeup on
I've got better things to do than my todo list anyway
Hide under the covers and waste away the day
Let's just lay here and be lazy, baby drive me crazy

All I want to do wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wooo
All I want to do wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wooo is love you

I got my whole life to change the world and climb the ladders
Looking at you looking at me is the only thing that matters
Come a little closer baby, we can talk without the words
Hang a sign on the door, please do not disturb
Let's just lay here and be lazy, baby drive me crazy

All I want to do wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wooo
All I want to do wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wooo is love you

Give me a kiss, from that Elvis lip,
You don't want to miss this,
All I want to do wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wooo
All I want to do wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wooo is love you wo woo

All I really want to do,
All I really want to do,
All I really want to do is love you, love you, love you
Come a little closer baby, we can talk without the words
Hang a sign on the door, please do not, please do not, please do not, please do not disturb
When I lay down in the evening all I really want to do,
When I wake up, when I wake up in the morning baby, all I really want to do...

[Selenay]

Hey, the rain falls straight into the sidewalk
Hey, the clouds hang heavy in the sky
But I don't want to still believe in
The gravity of solid ground
The world below is not so big
That it can keep us down

We are standing on the rooftops
We are circling like sparrows
We are tiny, we are trembling,
Scared of everything.
But the heart is still a redwing.

[Selenay]

Oh, I know that she’s disgusted
Cause she’s feeling so abused.
She gets tired of the lust,
But it’s so hard to refuse.

[Write14u]

Curbside prophets they're yellin' at me
He can save my soul for a drink and a dollar
They keep starin' at my tattoos
We all live with the scars we choose
They might hurt like hell
but they all make us stronger

[Enchantress]

There's a saying old says that love is blind
Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
So Im going to seek a certain lad Ive had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet

Hes the big affair I cannot forget
Only man I ever think of with regret
Id like to add his initial to my monogram
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

There's a somebody Im longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone wholl watch over me
Im a little lamb whos lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
Someone wholl watch over me

Although he may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key
Wont you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me

[Write14u]

And theres a place in heaven
for those wild and kindred souls.
But they'll be raising hell till then:
Renegades, Rebels and Rogues

[Selenay]

Now that we're old and ready to go
We get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago
We had a lot of kids, trouble and pain
But then, oh Lord...
We'd do it again

Oh, kisses sweeter than wine...

[Write14u]

Lying beside you, here in the dark
Feeling your heart beat with mine
Softly you whisper, you're so sincere
How could our love be so blind
We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are by my side

So now I come to you, with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms

[Selenay]

My heart's grown cold
There's not much left
My blood won't turn
And I can see my breath
She walks above, the angel's rule
Kicks the snow, feels like winter
I'd do anything to just be with her. . .

[Write14u]

I'm so tired but I can't sleep
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
Though we are screaming inside oh we can't be heard

[Selenay]

He was her only child, her baby boy
She was his second daughter, a father's pride and joy.
Somebody's mother, brother, best friend, sister, lover
Maybe an A-1 student running, hiding, taking cover. . .

People say, "Not in this neighborhood!
It doesn't happen here!
Our kids have everything,
What do we have to fear?"
But what about the ones who say, "This happens every day;
Drugs and violence take our children.
How much more death can come our way?"

Don't you know?
Some bullets find their targets
Bombs can take you right on cue
Some in the hands of babies
Or officials and their crew
Claimed the brother had a gun
She fit the profile in my book
Running, hiding, taking cover, didn't take the time to look
Somebody's mother, brother, best friend, sister, lover. . .

The women gather crying tears that fill a million oceans
It doesn't matter where you're living.

[Write14u]

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son
Is to be satisfied.

[Beau]

I am thinking it's a sign
That the freckles in our eyes
Are mirror images and
When we kiss they're perfectly aligned

And I have to speculate
That God himself did make us into
Corresponding shapes like puzzle pieces
From the clay

[QueenofQueens]

They will see us waving from such great heights,
come down now...

[violaine]

they'll look you in the eyes and
stone you
then turn and disown you
they'll walk all over your name
'til they find someone else
to blame
secrets hide their lies
inside hidden alibis
they put the world on a hook
it's worse every time i look

it will be in your honor
'til you're not needed any longer
don't believe the headlines
check it for yourself sometimes
the lies you live become you
the love you lose it numbs you
they say that you've arrived
that's just a high class bribe

there's always someone younger
someone with more hunger
they'll say you're one and only
then straight up leave you lonely
like a transplant patient
waiting for a donor
like a half empty balloon
after a party in the corner

i would rather take a punch
than not give you a shot
i'd rather find out who you are
than who you're not
shoulda known better
than to mistake business for love
shoulda known better
than to mistake a fist for a glove

don't let them take the fight
outta you


Like a transplant patient
waiting for a donor.
Don't let it take the fight outta you.

Like a half empty balloon
after a party in the corner.
Don't let it take the fight outta you.

[Write14u]

Oh girl.
You stand by me.
I'm forever yours.
Faithfully.

[Selenay]

She's a summer storm
and I'm a hurricane.
One just blows through town
One blows the town away.
(I'm wilder than her.)
