Whenever I see you I need more And want you to stay ‘til the end One look at that smile and I’m all yours Will you just smile at me again Chorus I have you to thank for making me so So hard to please because you treated me so Good that no one else could hold your make-up Because of you girl I never want to break up The difference I’m feeling in my heart Is the difference of loving or not And under the stars and moon and sun Is the perfect becoming of one Chorus I have you to thank for making me so So hard to please because you treated me so Good that no one else could hold your make-up Because of you girl I never want to break up Bridge If I told you that I loved like an ace Then I’d be lying ‘cause I’ve made some mistakes But I’m trying with perfect faith When I let you in I began to win And now I’m just all gold After all I’ve done And the road I’ve run I want to thank you I want to thank you Chorus I have you to thank for making me so So hard to please because you treated me so Good that no one else could hold your make-up Because of you girl I never want to break up All I do when I think about it Is thank you baby Thank you baby All I do when I think about it Is thank you baby I just want to thank you baby I just want to Thank you
When your feathers are soaked And your eyes are too bloody to see And you've pulled every punch that you had But there's one that you need Then you've waited too long There's a hole in your heart And all you've become is emotionally over-run Chorus Wishing wells were made to echo a dime The consequences are you keep on relying You've become a run and hide refugee Baby I'm a Cop Stop! Put up your hands and surrender to me You're gonne get hooked If there's anything left I can do You're already disarmed It's your lasting alarm I pursue You can loosen those fists Come on blow me a kiss You've been roughed up enough To deserve some relief from your troubles So I'm coming in Chorus Otherwise I would never tell you what to do despite Any indecision though I know I'm right Arguing was always my forte But one thing I can say is I won't tell you lies Or treat you like a rental car like other guys And if you think I'm crazy find an alibi But you will need some evidence to show Chorus
There's no need to beg babe, that's my open pocket You take the money from me, I can scrounge Gave me a fever that will not come down, oh babe You're a young woman cast aside Ostracized, left on the side walk of my lonely life
For the young lovers taking the hill One plants the flag while the other is killed When the wine pours we raise our cups Young love is sacrifice, young love is tough Young love is innocent, young love is us
What did I get into, now everything is untrue, oh Your eyes tell the lies of the lines that you said Now that I love you, waoh, I wish we never met Why wait? Woman I'm taking risks here that no one dared And you're scared, scared of the bottom, afraid of the stairs
For the young lovers taking the hill One plants the flag while the other is killed When the wine pours we raise our cups Young love is sacrifice, young love is tough Young love is innocent, young love is us
Someone, I saw someone and fell in love with a face And it scares me to let it go Still want her even though I get less than she takes
For the young lovers taking the hill One plants the flag while the other is killed When the wine pours we raise our cups Young love is sacrifice, young love is tough Young love is innocent
For the young lovers taking the hill One plants the flag while the other is killed When the wine pours we raise our cups Young love is sacrifice, young love is tough Young love is innocent, young love is us Young love is innocent, young love is, is yeah
Tell 'em, "Say no to drugs" "Substances make you dumb" Then you say, "give 'em some" Are you the victim Of this experience Child experiment Teacher's predicament? You're in THE SYSTEM And if you don't walk the line You can walk the plank Your older brother (government) Wants to control your mind You're more useful blank Prechorus Medicate the kids Feathers turn to quills Pump 'em full of training fluids Powders and pills There's nothing you can't flush out And nothing you can't kill Chorus Why don't you just back off of us Before we go crazy? I'm gonna tell you, "No way, This ain't fair play, Just don't medicate me" Tell 'em, "Say no to drugs" "Substances make you dumb" Unless you get 'em from Someone who loves you One who knows best for you Paid for those tests for you Knows how to get you through When it's above you And you can't get on top Cause it's high to climb, You hear them saying, "Don't make me call the cops" Every other time Prechorus Chorus Bridge And there's a long line Flowing from prescription aisles Filed through legal means So we can alter the child For his protection Tie him to extension cords, This is the age of discipline Chorus
A flashlight Isn't quite sunlight But any light at all seems bright When you're looking in the dark A wet Dream Isn't the real thing It isn't really anything But at least it makes a spark And all is relative, relative Everything is relative, yes it is CHORUS It's all about the way we recieve it How much we believe it Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it Compare it to yourself Compared to someone else, you care And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it Compare it to yourself Compared to someone else, you care Pre-made isn't quite home made But pre-made with a home name Is almost just the same Your girlfriend Isn't your best friend But any friend is best when You're freezing in the rain And all is relative, relative Everything is relative, yes it is CHORUS You’re either underweight or you’re unfit Underdressed or over zipped Too social or you’re just too shy Too depressed or you’re too high Night to day Day to night Rich to poor Black or white All is relative Everything is relative All is relative CHORUS x2 All is relative Everything is relative Oh yeah, yeah, yeah Everything is relative All is relative You care
This ain't the kind of affair to make you dance about But there's something to say for the things You wouldn't regularly let out At least this chase makes you feel new
<i>[Chorus]</i> She holds a key Tight in her hand Clutching his neck She is breaking the man Listen you sinner I'm sinning too Just wait until the darkness falls So I can sin with you
You've run through the whole gamut of gameplay The head-trip parade Without any experience You've become curious prey So change your position This decision you're making Is digging a hole Oh, and where you're headed Only heaven knows
<i>[Chorus]</i>
So set out your plans Break down your walls Count what you're blessed with You've counted them all There's something to save But you have to search You might not believe But, believe me, it works, Believe me it works, yes it does
<i>[Chorus]</i> She holds a key Tight in her hand Clutching his neck She is breaking the man Listen you sinner I'm sinning too Just wait until the darkness falls So I can sin with you
The letters you wrote me have hollow point headers If you think you've got it like that find somebody better You said I need fixing, you numbered the stages But I won't be living in one of your cages Open your mind and understand
[Chorus] When you're hard on me, it's not what I need We were meant to be untamed I'm on my feet, wanna run free Because nobody's taming me.
I'm out from the narrow protective container Designed to be opened with your childish behavior Cause you're not the critic of personal purpose And I'm just not willin' to community service I don't know why you lay it on
[Chorus]
You say that I should lend a shoulder Right now, cause your whole world is blowing up Go ahead, but I won't be your soldier Cause you're the one who started up, You're the one who started up
[Chorus: x2]
Because nobody's taming me
We were meant, we were meant to be untamed.
[x2] We were meant, we were meant to be We were meant to be untamed
[Chorus] We belong together Like the open seas and shores Wedded by the planet force We've all been spoken for
The hammer may strike, be dead on the ground A net to my hand, a cross on his crown We're done if who we're undone Finished if who we are incomplete As one we are everything We are everything we need
[Chorus]
What good is a life, with no one to share The light of the moon, the honor of a swear We can try to live the way of which you speak Taste the milk of your mother earth's love Spread the word of consciousness you see We are everything we need
[Chorus]
All this indecision All this independent strength Still, we've got our hearts on safe We've got our hearts on safe
Someday when you're lonely Sometime after all this bliss Somewhere lost in emptiness I hope you find this gift... I hope you find this gift... I hope you find this gift...
