Squint your eyes and look closer
I'm not between you and your ambition I am a poster girl with no poster, I am 32 flavors and then some And I'm beyond your peripheral vision so you might want to turn your head 'Cause someday you're going to get hungry and eat all of the words that you just said I am what I am, I am 32 flavors and then some God help you if you are an ugly Course too pretty is also your doom 'Cause everyone harbors a secret hatred for the prettiest girl in the room God help you if you are a phoenix and you dare to rise up from ash A thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy while you are just flying past I am what I am, I am 32 flavors and then some I'm taking my chances as they come I am 32 flavors and then some, I'm nobody but I am someone, someone... I'd never try to give my life meaning by demeaning you And I would like to state for the record... I did everything that I could do I am beyond your peripheral vision so you might want to turn your head 'Cause someday you're going to be starving and eating all the words that you just said That you said I am what I am, I am what I am I am 32 flavors and then some I'm taking my chances as they come I am 32 flavors and then some I'm looking for truth and there is none I'm 32 flavors and then some I'll never forget where I came from I'm 32 flavors and then some I'm nobody but I am someone I'm 32 flavors and then some I'm taking my chances as they come I'm 32 flavors and then some Looking for truth and there is none |

There's a bleeder in my kitchen and he's pouring on the floor
There's a killer in my hallway, and he's scratching at my door I think I might have heard some screaming I might have heard somebody cry Now I wonder am I dreaming or is my mind telling me a lie Well I can't run any further and I can't hide anymore And I think there's been a murder up on the ground floor There's a boa in my bathroom and he's coiling in my sink He wants my cats I think Paranoia in my house and I'm balanced on the brink And I can't run any further and I can't hide anymore 'Cause I think there's been a murder up on the ground floor I'm living in a basement flat in a quiet part of town I bet you wonder where my head is at when I'm imagining all these sounds I'd check it out but I'm glued to my chair I can't make it to the door I could be bugging but I'd gladly swear I just heard a body hit the floor And I can't run any further I can't hide, I can't hide anymore And I think there's been a murder up above me on the ground On the ground floor |

I'm having a notion
It's a strange, the strangest emotion I'm all wrapped up with my head in the clouds The sweet child thinks he doesn't deserve me but I'm not that proud I'd walk for miles to see that handsome face To be with you baby I'd go anyplace So you say that you ain't go money, well I don't care 'Cause I'm so in love with you honey What I got I'll share Take me by the hand, help me move my mountains aside Help me understand that love is stronger than.. It'll serve you longer than pride Now father lend me your strength I know you think I'm weak but I'm not ashamed 'Cause I'm in love and I'll tell you it's real I may be young but I know what I feel So you think he's gonna up and leave me...I disagree He said that he'd give up the world just to please me and care for me, he'll Take me by the hand, help me move my mountains aside Help me understand that love is stronger than... It'll serve you longer than pride When I first looked in his eyes I felt this chemistry And much to my surprise here's a man full of beauty and free of greed And I'll stand by him 'cause he's all that I need The sweet child thinks he doesn't deserve me but I'm not that proud said it once but I don't think he heard me so I'll say it out loud... |

Little boy wishes he wasn't small
He'd give his turtle to be six feet tall He's got photos of Shaq and Ewing up on his wall And he'd try a jump shot but he's afraid he'll down Little girl wants to fall in love Dressed like her mother in white evening gloves She pretends, tells her friends she's got somewhere to go They don't ask where so they'll never know she feels With a shorter past there's a greater hurry Let the moment last, there's no need to worry We should be living for today or tomorrow anyway And don't ask for the world on a plate 'cause you just might get it Don't ever say it's too late, you know you'll regret it because Just when you think you're sure, your life can change right before your eyes A mother's thinking of her little boy Left home at sixteen back in '84 He's got a dog named Lucy says she's all that he needs Lucy knows better she hears all his dreams When you search yourself, when you get down to it If you know yourself, you know you'll get through it So start living for today or tomorrow anyway And don't ask for the world on a plate 'cause you just might get it Don'r ever it's too late you know you'll regret it because Just when you're sure your life can change right before your eyes With a shorter past there's a greater hurry Don't grow too fast there's no need to worry Start living for today or tomorrow anyway... Just when you're sure your life can change right before your eyes Right before your eyes |

Looking to the sky, wishing for the sun
Lowering the high before the trip's begun Passing time, acting blind, taking the easy way out Every day you spend wasting away You don't care what life's about But you will one day You will one day you'll be hurting some day You will one day Said you'd be the one, said you'd always be there But you're caring for none and your promises they drift into the air Every night you want to start a fight Trouble's what you are made of You can't be tied, you can't look inside Don't want anymore to love But you will one day You will one day, you'll be hurting some day You will one day But you will one day, you will one day... |

You've got your home of the brave and I've got my land of the free
You conform to what society says and I conform to me Looking for light in the corners getting caught in the spider web You look at me as if I'm giving a performance when I'm just feeding my head And you know that I'm doing all right And I won't explain myself to you just to avoid a right How I'm living ain't correct but for me it's just right I'm not completely insane, I'm maybe just a little bit crazy There's no one to blame, got no shame about game Don't want nobody to save me I've got a pair of ruby slippers that I don't wear much anymore And if I had the nerve I'd click my heels and return To the wonderland I knew before I'm waiting to slow boat to China, want to sail away to the sun I've been searching for myself and I know I'm gonna find her if I break away from everyone So the way that i act may not fit in Just because I've got a mind of my own doesn't mean it's a sin I don't ask you to give up; don't expect me to give in 'Cause I'm not completely insane, I'm maybe just a little bit crazy there's no one to blame, got no shame about my game Don't want nobody to save me Some like to live for the moment taking life into their own hands every day And if they don't get killed they get so high off the thrill They could float to heaven anyway And others want to ave for tomorrow thinking money is security Well I understand the need but I don't get the greed And they all seem pretty crazy to me You can tell by the expression I wear Though I seem a little strange to you ,I don't really care I got the freedom to be and there are others like me everywhere... |

Won't be like yesterday But it stays this way Today and every day I pray That today will feel a different way But it stays this way The weight of the world has fallen And the rubble is at my feet The voice of a girl is calling I can hear her but she's buried so deep All of my truths are broken They're fragments of love and hate The words that remain are a token Of honesty that came too late Here in the midst of madness Washed up by the tides of war Try to resist this sadness But the pressure is hard to endure Yet we begin again still playing our games And everyone's innocent Just victims of change Wearing a mask of freedom And hiding behind a smile Playing the roll of a leader Yea pretending for just a while Everything seems an illusion Echoing around my brain Trapped in a vast seclusion Where the images fall like rain And we begin again Still playing our games And everyone's innocent Just victims of change Living in sin again With no one to blame And everyone's innocent Just victims of change Each day I say that today Won't be like yesterday But it stays this way Today and every day I pray That today I will feel a different way But it stays this way Oh yeah La la la la la la la la la la Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah La la la la la la la la la yeah |

At night as we lay down to sleep I wonder what you'll show me
I think of you and the thoughts that you keep And I wonder do you know me Everything that I have is broken in two, everything that I am revolves around you And you just don't understand what a girl goes through Everyone believes in something though they give it different name You can search the world for that one thing but it's all the same Lay your body down, come and let me bring your body down Listen to my voice, the only sound As I lullaby you, lullaby you down As the moon rides away from the sun she takes all his light and reflects it I relate them to us just for fun There's a parallel that's unexpected Every star in the sky reminds me of you Twinkling in my eyes the way that you do And I don't know why I get so blue Everyday is filled with changes no matter where you go Living in a world of strangers So we go for what we know Lay your body down... Everyone believes in something but it's all the same I got you to keep going me going So I guess I can't complain Lay you body down... |

I remember the long warm December we shared
I can still taste the air You were open and i was hoping you cared, hoping that you would be there for me That's the way it was meant to but i guess that your heart was free Free to take the best part of me and leave a hole where my heart should be Where it used to be Days are lonely and nights are only a veil And the air is so stale I'm still open but I guess you were hoping we'd fail So you could sail away from me And return to your open sea where I guess that you need to be Where you can wander endlessly Still you know that your heart was free And you took the best part part of me And left a hole where my heart should be Where you know it should be You're for me...I'd have sworn that it was my destiny But I know you were always free Free to be the best part of me I'd have loved you endlessly with my heart and soul eternally A love the way a love should be-ain't that the way a love should be? You are free, free to give back the heart of me and replace all the misery Since you took the best part of me And left a hole where my heart should be Where my heart should be |

Another Sunday, another one way road away from home
I keep thinking one day I'm going to wake up far from what I've known There's a man, he's going to cheat me if he can He's looking for someone to scam Here I am with my guts out in my hand, looking for some place to stand It's hard to hold on to what you're found when what comes around always goes around Here we go round and around on the outside Do we know how to hold on with our hands tied? Another Sunday ,ain't no change in how we're living now I keep hoping one day maybe Monday will be, will be different somehow In the end there are lovers, there are friends, there are liars who pretend They'll cheat you if they can- seems to be their master plan To leave you with an empty hand And it's hard to hold on to what you're found when what comes around always goes around Here we go round and around on the outside Do we know how to hold on with our hands tied? Here we go turning around one the inside Do we know how to hold ..can we survive? Work for so long and we try to be strong Time just keeps moving us along It's hard to be right when everything's wrong But we've got to keep on... |

I've lived my life beside an ocean
And every day I drown emotions with the tide And no one's ever asked me why Guess I'm silly to waste my time I reach and stretch too far to measure And I break myself to keep together all the time It's a struggle to be kind In a world that seems so blind Before I grow too old to seize the day Before I spread my wings and fly away I'd like to get to see my heart at play And see if love can't save the day What if it's the only way Can we save the day Aside from my faith there is no glory And aside from the truth there is no story anymore We're all soldiers in the war But tell me what are we fighting for Feels like we've been here forever As I break myself to keep together and apart From a way that eats my heart I don't know how it got so hard Before I grow too old to seize the day Before I spread my wings and fly away I'd like to get to feel my heart at play See if love can't save the day What if it's the only way Can we save the day |

I've seen suckers lose themselves in the games
They learn to play Children love to sing, then their voices Slowly fade away People always take a step away From what is true That's why I like you around I want you Yeah you do you do you do you do you do you do You make me want you An open invitation to the dance Happenstance set the vibe that we are in No apology because my urge is genuine And the mystery of opposites attract And Here I am and I want to take a hit Of your sent cuz it bit So deep into my soul I want you Yeah you do you do you do you do you do you do you do You make me want you Yeah you do you do you do you do you do you do you do You make me want you And I can't get enough And I can't get enough And I can't get enough The village churchyard is filled with Bones weeping in the grave The silver line of clouds shines On people Jesus couldn't save You want to know how deeply my soul goes Deeper than bones (Deeper than bones) And I can't get enough And I can't get enough And I can't get enough After we did it by the windowsill Smoke rings drifting into the sky Wrapped in a quilt that my momma made A warm candle burns to fighting off the haze And you talk real sweet and kiss me on the cheek And like a jazz DJ you talk me into sleep And They'll be no regrets when the end comes And it will surely come You do you do you do you do you do you do you do You make me want you I want you I want you |

I don't know when you became king of my dreams
I only know when you go that everything around me falls apart at the seams I've never known someone so much like me Yet you're your own and parts of you remain a sweet mystery And I am falling Falling into a dream And you you are calling Calling to be your queen All the world is a stage when you're around Everyone's acting their parts but nothing is real like This love that I've found With you my baby And when you lift me up there's no coming down I get so high I could float away on a feather like a fairy crown And I am falling... The willows howls as the lazy sleep And the lucky stars fall away as they weep |

Soul driving down this lonesome road
Somewhere...somewhere someone's waiting You're leaving with a part of me Stolen...stolen time that once was mine Precious words we left unheard Desert me and deceive me but I don't care I don't care anymore You love me then you leave me but I don't care I don't care anymore Heart stepping through the door alone Somewhere...somewhere someone's longing Smiled, someone at the red light smiled Saved me...saved me from my inner strife Baby he just saved my life |

I called my mom I called my friend Looking for a reason to go home again But you make me feel like I don't belong Like my heart's too weak and my head's too strong Opposites attract sometimes but not the way you're attracting mine And I can't cange the way you are Even though you think you're some kind of rock star I want you out of my life 'cause your heart is as cold as ice It's time that you hit the door I don't want to see you no more You want me to walk like this and talk like that Dye my hair and don't wear hats And dress too sleazy and go too far But all I want to do is play my guitar And I don't think that it's fair And I don't think that you care about me Yeah but I see the way it's got to be I want you out of my life Why am I in this alone Is my love too much for you What's wrong with home I hope you have found your answer Becuase I think that I found mine I want you out of my life |

Hey brother, tell me what it is Do you think you might forget yourself if you forgive You don't answer, so long since you did Am I wasting time just waiting to find out The answers behind how you live Hey sister, do you like this place Don't it seem it all revolves around a pretty face Don't lose your amazing grace And keep in control of you heart and your soul Which no one will ever replace Somewhere under the rainbow There's sunlight maybe a sprinkle of gold... Hey genius, tell me what you see Is it everyone around this girl or is it just me Your martyr, I will never be Because I'm willing to fight for all of the rights You've wrongfully taken from me And somewhere under the rainbow There's sunlight maybe a sprinkle of gold I've been waiting, seems like a lifetime For someone to take all this rain off my mind Mmm hmm... Hey Jesus, do you hear my prayer I've been waiting forever for you to tell me that you care I'm lonely and it don't seem fair I was hoping that you would tell me you do Have a way out of all this despair... |

You make me whole But we still have places left to go But my life, heart and soul Is yours for the sharing, let me know With all you've seen You still keep your heart set on your dreams You're so strong you should rest assured Anything in this world you want is yours I don't have a chance with you But I'm gonna let you find that all your love is better in my mind You don't have the heart to let me go I'm gonna let you fly and all the rest I'll find on my own This life we lead Takes everything you've got and lets you bleed But when you see that you're not alone It'll open wider than you know I know what you're feeling when you're willing to break And I see all the pressure that you're willing to take... |

As I stand here in your shadow
Waiting for you to move so I can see out the window I want to watch the children play See another little girl fall and run away And I'll never understand the way that you play with me You were almost heaven an angel from above But you're not a god of love You were almost heaven the way I'm dreaming of But you're not a god of love And you're not the one for me You always seem to laugh when I'm not joking And I'm not joking anymore And we dont communicatre So I spoke with fate And it's just too late... You were almost heaven an angel from above But you're not the god of love AYou were almost heaven the way I'm dreaming of But you're not a god of love And you're not the god of me I will give you up... |

Like a sparrow with a wounded wing Left all alone, to a tree I'll sing But it can't respond to my melody And it can't lend me harmony It's just one my one thin lonely voice And it's not my choice to be alone But I've come too far now to go back home On my own it's no fun to roam I've got to find me someone to be around When all these blues get me down Maybe you've got the time Maybe you'll share yourself with me I don't need to call you mine Just like you, babe I need to be free And just like you, babe I need to be me Just like you, baby I would be so easy to love I don't want someone to watch over me I don't care about the holes in your jeans You just come and you do what you do And could you be there baby when I call for you I could use some peace of mind It's not my choice to be alone But I've come to far now to run back home On my own it's no fun to roam I've got to find me someone to be around When all these blues get me down Maybe you've got the time Maybe you'll share yourself with me I don't need to call you mine Just like you baby I need to be free Just like you baby I need to be me Just like you baby I would be so easy to love |

Squint your eyes and look closer
I'm not between you and your ambition I am a poster girl with no poster I am 32 flavors and then some Squint your eyes and look closer I'm not between you and your ambition I am a poster girl with no poster I am 32 flavors and then some And I'm beyond your peripheral vision So you might want to turn your head Cause someday you're going to get hungry And eat all of the words that you just said I am what I am I am 32 flavors and then some God help you if you are an ugly girl Course too pretty is also your doom Cause everyone harbors a secret hatred For the prettiest girl in the room God help you if you are a phoenix And you dare to rise up from the ash A thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy while You are just flying past. I am what I am I am 32 flavors and then some I'm taking my chances as they come I am 32 flavors and then some I am nobody but I am someone Someone I'd never try to give my life meaning by Demeaning you And I would like to state for the record I did everything that I could do I am beyond your peripheral vision So you might want to turn your head Cause someday you're going to be starving And eating all of the words that you just said That you said I am what I am I am what I am I am 32 flavors and then some I'm taking my chances as they come I am 32 flavors and then some I'm looking for truth but there is none I am 32 flavors and then some I'll never forget where I came from I am 32 flavors and then some I'm nobody but I am someone I am 32 flavors and then some I'm taking my chances as they come I am 32 flavors and then some Looking for truth and there is none |

At night as we lay down to sleep
I wonder what you'll show me I think of you And the thoughts that you keep And I, I wonder do you know me Everything that I have Is broken in two Everything that I am Revolves around you And you just don't understand What a girl goes through Everyone believes in something Though we give it different names You can search the world for that one thing But it's all the same Lay your body down Come and let me bring your body down Listen to my voice The only sound As I lullaby you, Lullaby you down As the moon rides away from the sun She takes all his light and reflects it I relate them to us just for fun There's a parallel that's unexpected Every star in the sky, Reminds me of you Twinkling in my eyes, The way that you do And I don't know why I get so blue Everyday is filled with changes No matter where you go Living in a world of strangers So we go for what we know Lay your body down Come and let me bring your body down Listen to my voice The only sound As I lullaby you, Lullaby you down yeah Everyone believes in something But it's all the same Attitude will keep me going So I guess I can't complain Lay your body down Come and let me bring your body down Listen to my voice The only sound As I lullaby you, Lullaby you down |
