If this world was mine, I'd take your dreams and make 'em multiply
If this world was mine, I'd take your enemies in front of God
Introduce 'em to that light, hit them strictly with that fire
Fah-fah, fah-fah-fah, fah-fah, fah
Hey, Roman numeral seven, bae, drop it like it's hot
If this world was mine, I'd take your dreams and make 'em multiply
If this world was mine, I'd take your enemies in front of God
Introduce 'em to that light, hit them strictly with that fire
It's a vibe, do your dance, let 'em watch
 
"Forward", he cried from the rear
And the front rank died
The general sat and the lines on the map
Moved from side to side
Black and blue
And who knows which is which
And who is who
Up and down
And in the end
It's only round and round, and round
"Haven't you heard it's a battle of words?"
The poster bearer cried
"Listen, son", said the man with the gun
"There's room for you inside"
 
Took me two years to write this song
I wanted it perfect, no wrinkles in it
Took me a long time to come clean
To be honest, the truth's so ugly

Took me a long time to come home
I didn't think you'd get me
I had too much explaining
No matter how far I run, I always end up back here

No matter how far I go, I always end up back here
In the mirror, in the mirror, in the mirror, only in the mirror

I always felt so out of place
In a crowded room, I speak too soon, yeah
I put a big smile on my face
I can't let them know it's all for show, no

I'm tired of running
I'm tired of running
I'm tired of running
I'm tired of running
I'm tired of running
I'm tired of running
I'm tired of running

In The Mirror - The Interrupters
 
I trace the feeling
Right where it started
Somewhere I couldn't touch you
I want to go online, if you wanna
Play to a game with no rules
Go online, where it started
Somewhere I can be with you
Where I can be with you
I pull the phone so close to my chest
Just to feel closer to you
I cannot stop the smile on my face
I know you're smiling too
Go online, where it started
Somewhere I can be with you
Where I can be with you
Ooh, if I knew at the time
If I knew at the time, mmm
I wouldn't change a line

Closer to my chest ❤️
 
I care too much, wanna share too much
In my head too much, I shut down too
I ain't there too much, I'm a complex soul
They layered me up, then broke me down
And moralities dust, I lack in trust (and I'm trippin' and fallin')
This time around, I trust myself
Please everybody else but myself
All else fails, I was myself
Out done fear, out done myself
This year, you better one yourself (and I'm trippin' and fallin')
Masks on the babies, mask on an opp
Wear masks in the neighborhood stores you shot
But a mask won't hide who you are inside
Look around, the realities carved in the lies
Wipe my ego, dodge my pride (and I'm trippin' and fallin')
Look myself in the mirror
Amityville, I ain't seen nothin' scarier
I fought like a pit bull terrier, blood I shed could fill up aquariums
Tell my angels, "Carry 'em" (and I'm trippin' and fallin')
Every emotion been deprived
Even my strong points couldn't survive
If I didn't learn to love myself, forgive myself a hundred times, dawg

I love when you count me out (huh)
I love when you count me out
I love when you count me out (wah, woo, ooh)
I love when you count me out
Fuck it up, fuck it up
Fuck it up, fuck it up, fuckin' it up

If you are alone tonight
You can come with us
If you don't have friends or family
Or people that you trust
We will be your confidants
Your sisters and your brothers

We don't have much
But we got each other
We don't have much
But we got each other

Through all the heartache
We find a way to smile
And if you were in trouble
I'd walk ten thousand miles
And when that storm comes around
Well I will be your cover

Make our home in this sacred ground
We've been here for years
Solid in foundation
The blood, the sweat, and tears
Raise your voice, stand side by side
And we will sing forever

You ready?
One, two, three, four
We don't have much
But we got each other
We don't have much
But we got each other

Love that. Going to listen to it.
 
I look up oh so high
I take a swing out of line
Say Daddy
Why was I born?

He said shut your mouth

So I creep into a cafe
And people are fucking and driving and spinning around
They′re listening to cassettes man

I′m pretty keen on centrefolds
but no-one's gonna love me
no-one's gonna love me like that

I′m pretty keen on tubular bells
but no-one′s gonna love me
no-one's gonna love me for that

I′m peachy keen and I'm terribly kind
but no-one′s gonna love me
no-one's gonna love me like that.

Pretty Keen On Centrefolds - Fight Like Apes
 
THE WAY

By Dorothy

The way we hurt, the way we lie
The way we call it justified
The way we love, the way we hate
The circle turns until it breaks
The way we tear each other down
We lose our faith, we lose our ground
Another day, another fight
Holding on for dear life

The sun will rise, the sun will fall
We keep searching through it all
In the darkness, find a light
Till we smile and say goodnight
Reach out my hand to you today
I might need you just the same
It's alright to be afraid
We'll help each other find the way

 
I'm a little bit a little bit in love with you
Don't wanna be a freak, just think you're cool
You've got me feeling ill 'cause I don't make the rules
And I wish I did, 'cause I want you
A little bit, a little bit obsessed with you
Don't wanna be your girl, just your muse
You'vе got me feeling ill 'cause I don't make thе rules
God, I wish I did, 'cause I'd have you

a little bit - ella boh
 
The writing on the wall
That we keep missing
A structure built to fall
Still we all obey
It's nice to know you're with us today
I've seen you in the fog along the way
I spit in the mouth of your god
Who whispers in the minds of our children
You've been sold again
Set fire to the hive as you flee
It's fiction, a faceless illusion
You've been had again
There's no second chances here
There's no second chances here
There's no second chances here
 
Not deep and meaningful but always makes me smile

Well, now then, mardy bum
I've seen your frown and it's like looking down
The barrel of a gun
And it goes off
And out come all these words
Oh, there's a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer
It's one that laughs and jokes around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah
To get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today
When you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on
Well, now then, mardy bum
Oh, I'm in trouble again, aren't I?
I thought as much
'Cause you turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can't bare
Well, can't we just laugh and joke around?
Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah
To get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today
When you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on
And, yeah, I'm sorry I was late
But I missed the train
And then the traffic was a state
And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate
That reoccurs, oh, when you say I don't care
But, of course I do, yeah, I clearly do
So laugh and joke around?
Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah
To get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today
When you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on
 
Child
Don't listen to their words
You're not a monster
No matter what you've heard

You're everything I'd dreamed you'd be
A miracle to me
They don't get to tell you what you're worth

Darling
You're native to the night
So take these wings I gave you and take flight

Don't ever be ashamed
Of your claws, your bite, your strength
They don't get to tell you who you are

Honey
Don't ever change a thing
Your fire breath, your many heads, your poisoned serpent sting

Just because their afraid
Doesn't mean that you have strayed
They don't even get to have a say

I can
Not give you their love
But I can make
You strong and brave
And I can make you tough

Their swords and arrows cannot pierce
The hide of one so proud, so fierce
They don't get to tell you who you are

They tell you you're a prophecy
But you're a possibility
They don't get to tell you what to be

And let them write their histories
Clinging to their legacies

You and me we know just what we're worth
 
When I was younger, I saw my daddy cry
And curse at the wind
He broke his own heart and I watched
As he tried to reassemble it
And my momma swore
That she would never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist

But darling, you are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception

Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone
Or keep a straight face
And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable distance
And up until now I had sworn to myself
That I'm content with loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk

But you are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception

I've got a tight grip on reality
But I can't let go of what's in front of me here
I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream
 
US Forces gives the nod
It's a setback for your country
Bombs and trenches all in rows
Bombs and threats still ask for more

Divided world the CIA
Say who control the issue
You leave us with no time to talk
You can write your own assessment

Sing me songs of no denying
Seems to me too many trying
Waiting for the next big thing

Will you know it when you see it
High risk children dogs of war
Now market movements call the shots
Business deals in parking lots
Waiting for the meat of tomorrow

Sing me songs of no denying
Seems to me too many trying
Waiting for the next big thing
