I know I come to you only when in need Im not the best believer not the most deserving but all I have all I am all I can For him Id beg you on bended knees for him
Precious baby, is your life hanging by a thread? A thread Im standing on, praying on today All I have all I am all I can For him Id beg you on bended knees for him
I've got this curse in my hands All I touch fades to black Turns to dust turns to sand I've got this curse on my tongue All I taste is the rust This decay in my blood
I dont like the doctor with the deep long face Only wants to give us the very worst case Id rather shout out and shake him and do anything For him Id beg you on bended knees for him
When the moment strikes it takes you by surprise and leaves you naked in the face of death and life there is no righteousness in your darkest moment Were all equal in the face of what were most afraid of And Im so sorry for those who didnt make it and for the mommies who are left with their heart breaking
I search for meaning in sores The sentences they might form Its the grammar of skin Peel it back, let me in Look for hope in the dark The shadow cast by your heart Its the grammar of faith No more rules, no restraint
How angry I would be If youd taken him away I wish I was wiser but instead Ill be grateful Ill say thanks For the joy for the love for the smile on his face Id beg you on bended knees for him
You come here to my work You come here every day To make sure I'm still here You look at me that way
Rings on my fingers And bows in my hair You think I'm your present You'll unwrap me here
Is this a bad dream Is this really my life Well you wanna know You'll show me tonight
I have this one face And i only check out It gets so far think it's time
Not for sale Not your girl Not your thing
I'm here on the counter With no money down For nine ninety nine You're taking me home
A dozen red roses A cute little house A cheap little ring The deal is cut, now
Something is messed up here Something isn't right We're supposed to be free I'm supposed to be mine This part of my body That you're pricing now I'm cutting it off I'm throwing it out
Not for sale Not your girl Not your thing
Got me mixed up with somebody else Got me mixed up with somebody else
got this feeling when i heard your name the other day couldn't say it couldn't make it go away it's a hard place can't be friends we can't be enemies it's just too much i feel the weight crushing down on my face
the hardest part is things already said getting better worse i cannot tell why do good things never wanna stay some things you lose some things you give away
broken pieces try and make it good again is it worth it will it make me safe today? it's a dumb song but i'll write it anyway it's an old mistake but we always make it why do we
this time it'll be alright this time it'll be okay
I can't find you Stay where you are I'm in the dark Stay where you are
(I'm alright I feel fine You're my life I'm alright)
She's dead if you want and that's me if you want Stuffed in the corner "little girl lost" I claw and I scratch and I beg and I scream I just need you to save me one last time It's me if you want but it's not what I want I want to burn up the place Set it on fire She's back because she wants to not be contained I can't tell the truth I can't speak this way
You can't find me You're in the dark I'm right here Stay where you are
(I'm alright I feel fine You're my life I'm alright)
She's dead if you want and that's me if you want Stuffed in the corner "little girl lost" I claw and I scratch and I beg and I scream I just need you to save me one last time It's me if you want but it's not what I want I want to burn up the place Set it on fire She's back because she wants to not be contained I can't tell the truth I can't speak this way x2
She's worried, she's worried, she's worried she said too much and talking I'm talking she's talking like books I read It's easy, it's easy, it's easy, to shut yourself off Never on the record it'll never show up
She wants to be, to be anonymous I sign, I sign, I sign anonymous
Feel safe, inside, inside those well drawn lines Boyfriend, a car, a job, my white girl life She swallowed a spider to catch, to catch that fly but I don't know why, why she swallowed that lie
She wants to be, to be anonymous I sign, I sign, I sign anonymous She wants to be, to be like everybody else I sign, I sign, I sign anonymous
Not enough for you to know Not enough for you to own Not enough for you to know Not enough for you to own
She wants to be, to be anonymous I sign, I sign, I sign anonymous
These words are all I have These words are who I am
Smile pretty, take take the money You know me well, don't you? Smile pretty, take take the money You know how to sell? I do
I'm your little, I'm your little, I'm your little mouth Don't you want me? I'm your little, I'm your little, I'm your little mouth Don't you want me?
Damaged goods x4
You wanna try her I think I wanna x4
cuz I'm your little, I'm your little, I'm your little mouth Don't you want me? I'm your little, I'm your little, I'm your little mouth Don't you want me?
Damaged goods x2
You wanna try her I think I wanna x4
cuz I'm your little, I'm your little, I'm your little mouth Don't you want me? I'm your little, I'm your little, I'm your little mouth Don't you want me?
Say no way We won't let them grow up that way Things have changed but some things have stayed the same Hold on what you want to but some things are passed down anyway Hold on to what I want to I don't think I know what I just
Leave me without a god without belief with out a cause Without a path that I should take Without a choice that a should make Such an easy thought and now I had it but I lost it I guess I need your help and now I Guess I need your help and now I
Say no way Don't let things go on this way A clean slate but it don't work that way Hold on to what you want to but some things are passed down anyway Hold on to what I want to I will have to own what I have
Leave me without a god without belief with out a cause Without a path that I should take Without a choice that a should make Such an easy thought and now I had it but I lost it I guess I need your help and now I Guess I need your help and now I
It's not my stuff it's just too much It's just my stuff it's just my
Leave me without a god without belief with out a cause Without a path that I should take Without a choice that a should make Such an easy thought and now I had it but I lost it I guess I need your help and now I Guess I need your help and now I
You stay on 'til you're good and raw Go back and forth, a little see-saw Hoping that this ride will end But when it does you go again
CHORUS Can't get that monster Out of my mind She's got my hair and She's got my eyes She follows me wherever I go Speaking for me and Wearing my clothes
You hang on 'til your hands are sore Blistering you still want more You think there's something here for you Go out and buy yourself a clue
CHORUS
In Hollywood where all the lights are low And truth's as rare as the winter snow She wanted a place arid as her soul Where her only job was never to grow old
When the lights are shining Will you see my skin Or just the shell that I'm packaged in I've held my tongue And I've hid my sores If I'm less of myself Will you love me more
She was a very good girl Did all her homework in school Always came home with top marks Teachers said you will go far So she buried her nose in her books And she never had time for those looks For the boys had noticed her frame Had grown into a figure number eight
Call her your Prisstina Would you put her under glass? Would you like to study? 'Cause she's got such perfect class Oh, you want to tempt her With your dirty rock n' roll Call her your Prisstina She's such a pretty girl
She went on to study ivy-league And to rack up points on her degree While the other girls fondled their dates She fooled around with her Bunsen plate But one night she was walking around She passed a club with music so loud She wondered what it would be like To stay out with a co-ed all night
Call her your Prisstina Would you put her under glass? Would you like to study? 'Cause she's got such perfect class Oh, you want to tempt her With your dirty rock n' roll Call her your Prisstina She's such a pretty girl
The party's already started and the music's drifting in Don't wait on your fairy godmother she's late on her way to you Should you trust that old Prince Charming You know he never did you any good But have yourself a ball, Prisstina, do all the things I would!
Call her your Prisstina Would you put her under glass? Would you like to study? 'Cause she's got such perfect class Oh, you want to tempt her With your dirty rock n' roll Call her your Prisstina She's such a pretty girl
She will go to the head of the class And all you boys need to get a late pass 'Cause she'll leave those dull lads behind Yeah that girl is ahead of her time
Stay away from the haunted heart Stay away from the haunted heart You swore to yourself that you'd make a new start Just like the demon with the poison dart
There's nothing left to see Turn out the light There's nothing left to see Turn out the light
Stay away from the burning house Stay away from the burning house To get inside, you'll never get out Die together before the flames go out Burn your baby make you scream and shout? Burn your baby make you scream and shout? Build it up just to tear it down Nothing left but ashes of doubt
There's nothing left to see Turn out the light There's nothing left to see Turn out the light
Put it in the ground sing a funeral song Put it in the ground sing a funeral song Have the neighbors over and we'll sing along Lowering the coffin on a love gone wrong Hey there now what did you bury today? Hey there now what did you bury today? Buried the love that I hoped would stay Nothing says 'forever' like my very own grave
There's nothing left to see Turn out the light There's nothing left to see Turn out the light
There's nothing left of me Turn out the light No one here but me Turn out the light
They tell us there are only two sides to be on If you are on our side you're right, if not you're wrong But are we innocent, paragons of good? Is our guilt erased by the pain that we've endured?
Hey look, it's time to pledge allegiance I love my dirty Uncle Sam Our country's marching to the beat now And we must learn to step in time
Where is the questioning? Where is the protest song? Since when is skepticism un-American? Dissent's not treason, but they talk like it's the same Those who disagree are afraid to show their face
Let's break out our old machines now It sure is good to see them run again Oh gentlemen, start your engines And we know where we got the oil from
Are you feeling alright now? Paint myself all red, white and blue Are you singing let's fight now? Innocent people die, uh oh
There are reasons to unite Is this why we unite? If you hate this time Remember we are the time!
Show you love your country, go out and spend some cash Red, white, blue hot pants doing it for Uncle Sam Flex our muscles show 'em we're stronger than the rest Raise your hands up, baby, are you sure that we're the best?
We'll come out with our fists raised The good old boys are back on top again And if we let them lead us blindly The past becomes the future once again
Will you come knocking on my door? Pull me pick me off the floor I might need something to get me going Feel it one time IT ROLLS dig it When I feel worn out when I feel beaten Like a used up shoe or a cake half-eaten There's only one way to keep on feeling Move it up one time IN TIME
This mama works till her back is sore But the baby's fed and the tunes are pure So you'd better get your feet on the floor Move it up one time TO THE BEAT, TO THE BEAT, TO THE BEAT, TO THE BEAT
These times are troubled these times are rough There's more to come but you can't give up Why don't you shake a tail for peace and love Move it up one time FOR LOVE JANET CARRIE CAN YOU FEEL IT Knife through the heart of our exploitation LADIES ONE TIME CAN YOU HEAR IT Disassemble your discrimination When violence rules the world outside And the headlines make me want to cry It's not the time to just keep quiet Speak up one time TO THE BEAT, TO THE BEAT, TO THE BEAT, TO THE BEAT
One and one and one is two All this and more you said was true And if youd left me ground to stand on Id run so far away from you What do you do with a remainder? You round it up or round it down And if youre scared by what youre left with Destroy the answer that youve found
You were the one When the day had begun The sun was shining on us Blinding me such That I couldnt see There was a hole beneath me And then you watched me fall With no expression at all
There is an absolute zero But you wont find it on your own Only someone else can show you nothing And leave you with a gaping hole
You were the one When the storm rolled in The sky was grey like your heart With no color at all I dont know you like this Youre as reckless as wind And I couldnt predict Just the way this would end
