Are you afraid, afraid of the truth In the mirror staring back at you. The image is cracked but so is the view, here. And the strength of a tree begins in the roots That I tend bury into you At least now the storm can′t blow me away.
So crawl inside my head with me. I′ll show you how it feels to be, To blame like me.
Should I be afraid of this face that I see In the mirror staring back at me? So cold were the days when I listened to you. And you say that I′m weak so show me the proof Because I still exist in spite of you But I won′t compete with you every day.
So crawl inside my head with me. I′ll show you how it feels to be, To blame like me.
Schizophrenic conversations that I′m always having with myself. I hear these voices in my head competing. Maybe I could use a little help I still have schizophrenic conversations Where there′s no one else around to hear. I long for solitude and peace within me Void of all the anger and the fear.
So crawl inside my head with me. I′ll show you how it feels to be, Fucked up like me.
I′ll show you how it feels to be To blame like me Ashamed like me
You must be broken By a thousand ways of wasting time Get to the point And off a hundred lines a week No need to change my mind A cleaner shade of thinking time But I seem to act more than I act upon most things.
[Chorus] Do you ever wonder How hard you hit? You broke my thunder Do you ever wonder How hard you hit? You broke my thunder
God made this night for me, a silly devil in my talking Romantic company for walking. Over and out...Over and out... This year is the year I want to be, that silly devil in me talking Romantic company for walking. Over and out...Over and out...
[Repeat Chorus]
I′m cramped and crawling from under the dead I′m sick of living without you in bed I′ve made mistakes that I wrote... That I read... But now I just can′t seem to be preoccupied The heart was tossed with a black lace chain With these hands that I write with And the ode that I live by... I will never be with you.
A scar was sewn A drop of blood was saved for making wine Still no repent On how you crumble when I shake A mental jaw was used To pry me from this wrecking bond The sad detail is all the promises I make.
Conversations with my thirteen year old self Conversations with my thirteen year old self
You′re angry I know this The world couldn′t care less You′re lonely I feel this And you wish you were the best No teachers Or guidance And you always walk alone You′re crying At night when Nobody else is home
Come over here and let me hold your hand and hug you darling I promise you that it won′t always feel this bad There are so many things I want to say to you You′re the girl I used to be You little heartbroken thirteen year old me
You′re laughing But you′re hiding God I know that trick too well You forget That I′ve been you And now I′m just the shell I promise I love you and Everything will work out fine Don′t try to Grow up yet Oh just give it some time
The pain you feel is real you′re not asleep but it′s a nightmare But you can wake up anytime Oh don′t lose your passion or the fighter that′s inside of you You′re the girl I used to be The pissed off complicated thirteen year old me
Conversations with my thirteen year old self Conversations with my thirteen year old self
Until we meet again Oh I wish you well oh I wish you well Little girl Until we meet again Oh I wish you well Little girl I wish you well Until we meet again My little thirteen year old me
Crazy, now what′cha doing? Just the same, well I think I′m right Crazy how fast you′re moving As our friendship pays for your lonely night
This is a conversation with myself
It′s okay to dance around it and have it your way Laugh about it, oh for goodness sake Don′t believe in anything that′s keeping you awake
I′m feeling all sentimental and feeling all thru my head I′m feeling all very sexual but feeling all by myself instead
This is a conversation with myself
It′s okay to dance around it and have it your way Laugh about it, oh for goodness sake Don′t believe in anything that′s keeping you awake Loverboy, lovergirl, You need a song to sleep to and morning to sleep thru And have it your way.
You better have it your way with yourself. You better have it your way anytime. You better have it you way with yourself and only yourself You better have it yours and baby you know that I′ll have mine.
Something changing The secret is building Almost over and somehow seems a beginning Losing focus It must be boring Looking forward never turns out the wrong way
Conversations alone Complicate us together on our own Conversations alone So alone
No one calling But someone is bound to reply No one out there But someone hears every word I know we′re playing the same game Easing the conscience by
The road was taken The path led on Til a new one′s left to clear The signal′s given The show turned on til emotion cut too near
The road was taken The path led on The signals given The show turned on Still receiving And still believing The time that you take isn′t gone
Keep us from together on our own Together on our own
A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation ain′t satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby
Baby close your eyes and listen to the music Drifting through a summer breeze It′s a groovy night and I can show you how to use it Come along with me and put your mind at ease
A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation ain′t satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby
Come on baby I′m tired of talking Grab your coat and let′s start walking Come on, come on Come on, come on Come on, come on Don′t procastinate, don′t articulate Girl it′s getting late, gettin′ upset waitin′ around
A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation ain′t satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby
Tell me something Go on and break my heart Make me want to scream Just to wake myself inside How can you love me If you don’t love yourself Stop this game, it’s a crying shame How we tear each other apart I’ve got an aching head So many things unsaid I can hear your footsteps on the stairs And down below Shut your mouth when I’m talking to you Nagging and yelling is all you do Shut your mouth when I’m talking to you I’m though with you, I’m through Sweet, sweet memories I used to know We used to fight like snow against the sun ’Till it turned out right but then I said goodbye And it was for good But no one ever brought me Joy and fun the way you could Shut your mouth when I’m talking to you Don’t slam the door like you did before Shut your mouth when I’m talking to you I’m through with you, I’m through Shut your mouth when I’m talking to you Don’t slam the door like you did before Shut your mouth when I’m talking to you I’m not through with you, not through Hey, Jeff, how’s it going I’ve got this desire growing Sometimes I’d do anything To have you as a friend again But it won’t be easy It’ll take a lot of guts But I will puck them all together If that is what you want If that is what you want
