Pedro The Lion - The Only Reason I Feel Secure (2005) by Pedro The Lion (보컬) on maniadb.com

I saw in your bedroom
the drawers had been emptied
looking for answers
but you won't admit it now

you don't need a reason
that's what you tell me
but I still don't buy it
you drink yourself silly
night after night

it makes me feel so good
to always tell you when you're wrong
the big man that I am
to always have to put you down

then there's your girlfriend
she opens her legs and
gives your life meaning
is that what you love her for?

the angel's always looking down
he's perfect with a frown
the bully always wins

it makes me feel so good
to always tell you when you're wrong
the big man that I am
to always have to put you down

it makes me feel so good
to always tell you when you're wrong
the big man that I am
to always have to put you down

it makes me look so good
to always put you in your place
I can write it in a song
but never say it to your face
to your face

Satellites mediate for us the day's events
Through fiber optics
I hope we can change the same
I wouldn't mind, but you are my only hope
I wouldn't mind, but you are my only hope

Clear as a bell are the short breaths
That you take when you're distracted
Same as the way that you roll your eyes
When I ask too many stupid questions

My faith in zeros and ones to host our romance
Rests on hope you gave that
I've some claim to your heart

I wouldn't mind, but you are my only hope
I wouldn't mind, but you are my only hope

Clear as a bell are the short breaths
That you take when you're distracted
Same as the way that you roll your eyes
When I've asked too many questions

I will call you in three weeks
Maybe then you'll have some more to say

crazy people know a special place to go when the pressure's on
neurons re-align til the feelin is fine,
or trouble is gone
they're in the business of inventing saviors

there's always trouble
so tell yourself again that help is on the way
and safety abounds
and safety abounds

when you need some kind of guarantee that you're protected
you start to trust the things that deeper comfort brings,
before you've checked it
you might be waiting for a long time.

there's always trouble
so tell yourself again that help is on the way
and safety abounds
that safety abounds
that safety abounds
that safety abounds

it's weird to think of all the things
that have not been keeping up with the times
it's ten o'clock the sun has now
just begun to set the western hills on fire
i hear that you don't change
how do you expect to keep up with the trends
you won't survive the information age
unless you plan to change the truth
to accommodate the brilliance of men
the brilliance of men
some folks think we're better now
social evolution's new synthetic will
will keep us on a straighter path
as better men use brand new math
with no wrong answers
i'm just a little bit worried
do you have some sort of plan
have you been finally defeated
by the cunning of these fully evolved men
i hear that you don't change
how do you expect to keep up with the trends
you won't survive the information age
unless you plan to change the truth
to accommodate the brilliance of men
yeah, the brilliance of men

Be thou my vision
O lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me
Save that thou art
Thou my best thought
By day or by night
Waking or sleeping
Thy presence my light

Riches i heed not
Nor man's empty praise
Thou my inheritance
Now and always
Thou and thou only
First in my heart
High king of heaven
My treasure thou art

Dad, Dad why did you let that man
Push you around like that?
You should have beat him down
Down to the ground
Down to the ground for that.
He said "Son, you're still young
and you always jump the gun."

There's real people in the big, big trucks
That you flip off when they get in your way.
You get so hacked that you pay no mind
To the great big sign that says "Oversized Load"
You really think they can go as fast
As you in your 87' Trans Am?
They know you're in a terrible rush,
They're going just as fast
As fast as they can.

Dad, Dad, I really don't understand
What driving big trucks has to do with that man
You should have taught him a lesson
About being rude.
About talking to you with such an attitude.
"Son, you're still young
and you always jump the gun."

you said that you would not love me last summer
and you said that you would not love me last spring
but i hoped that you would change your mind by autumn
especially when i bought that diamond ring

but you still said no
you wouldn't have me
you still said no no no

i heard that you've been sleeping with your old friends
and i heard when each one left and broke your heart
i told you then that i would never leave you
and i told you that i'd loved you from the start

even though you haven't any answers
you still think that you don't need anyone
to save you from the mess that you've created
even when i gave my only son
