Walkin' on the streets tonight I am so aware of you Give me a reason to fight When there's nowhere to run to
Go home
Wake up, wake up, wake up right now There's no one to protect you Hide myself behind my words Hide myself inside a' my clothes Hide myself inside my mind
Go home Go home
Now take that voice outside a' my head I hear that voice inside a' my head Get that voice outta my head I hear that voice inside a' my head I will choke it dead, dead I will stab it dead, dead I will kill it dead, dead
I got a word or two cuz I don't understand What's with me and you it's getting outta hand Somethin's on your mind, you don't have to shout Why can't we just talk and figure this thing out
I used to think that you and me would stay together Why oh why can't we see eye to eye? Why oh why can't we see eye to eye?
You make me come with you and then you give me grief When I try to go you never let me leave If I shut my mouth you think that I don't care When I try to help you say it's your affair
It's not the way that you and me should treat each other Why oh why can't we see eye to eye? Why oh why can't we see eye to eye?
It's breakin' my heart we're grown' apart An' we never seem to agree I'm walkin' away we got nothin' to say But that ain't the way it should be be (We're history!)
It's such a drag we have this bad misunderstanding Why oh why can't we see eye to eye? Why oh why can't we see eye to eye?
Maybe I don't wanna maybe I don't wanna, wanna Maybe I don't wanna fuck you!
I'm a spinster, I don't need no rules I don't got no one tellin' me what to do Tellin' me what's cool? I'm no stupid fool
Hey teen ageist I'm not over yet Y-O-U-T-H only, baby, that's your math I'm a spinster, I don't need your rules I'm resisting, I don't need no one to Tell me what's cool or how I need a tool To get thru to you
I'm no one's wife and' I'm not your little girl Don't tell me I'm useless cuz I want More from this world
Maybe I don't wanna maybe I don't wanna, wanna Maybe I don't wanna maybe I don't wanna Maybe I don't wanna maybe I don't wanna, wanna Maybe she don't wanna fuck you! Hey ever think of that?
Maybe I was lonely or a little bit crazy Weird interaction excited me so I could see the danger made it more intriguing I was bound for touble when I let myself go, yeah
What kind of fool would keep hangin' around While you treat me this way
Torture - me n' you it's Torture - what we do is Torture - yeah it's true an' It hurts so bad but I love it, yeah
I was just a tumble went a little too far The fun an' games were getting outta control Took it to the limit now there's no escapin' This deviation has taken its toll, ow
Torture - we can't hide this Torture - my hads are tied it's Torture - I'll survive but It hurts so bad an' I love it yeah
I been up against the wall so long And the bonds that hold me here are strong Yeah it hurts but this is where I belong
Torture - me n' you it's Torture - what we do is Torture - yeah it's true an' It hurts so bad but I love it, yeah
Words, letters and numbered grooves Caught in a photograph and I can't move Is that your camera or is that your gun Stuck in a funhouse that ain't no fun
I'm rubber you're glue An' whatever you say Bounces off of me yeah, yeah An' sticks to you
Power hungry poser scene Embalm your words deep inside of me What'd you put in my head You define everything to death
I'm rubber you're glue An' whatever you say Bounces off of me yeah, yeah An' sticks to you
Who defines your identity? Re-define your identity Get your words outta me Who decides your identity? Not me
I'm rubber you're glue An' whatever you say Bounces off of me yeah, yeah An' sticks to you
I'm rubber you're glue An' whaterver you say Bounces off of me yeah, yeah An' sticks to you
I wanted to be everything you wanted I wanted to be everything you needed I wanted what I said To bring to you laughter I wanted what I did to make you smile
But in a perfect world There's no perfection Cause in a world of dreams You're only dreaming I want it to be real I just can't take it
As I am Take me as I am Now I'm only flesh and blood Oh I wish that you could Love me as I am
You thought you had me Tucked inside your pocket You thought you had it under your control You can put my smiling picture in a locket But you can't put a chain around my soul
But in a perfect world There's no perfection Cause in a world of dreams You're only dreamin' Don't make me feel like I can't make it
As I am Take me as I am Now I'm only flesh and blood Oh I wish that you could Love me as I am As I am Now I'm doing the best I can Try to understand And love me as I am
Oooo, in another place and time Oooo, I will be the vision in your mind
As I am Take me as I am Now I'm only flesh and blood Oh I wish that you could Love me as I am As I am Now I'm doing the best I can Try to understand Now I know God has a plan And I guess that's why she made me As I am
She works real hard to try to make things right To see if she can find a reason for what's wrong In life she puts her thoughts into magazine form And passes them all around her dorm Showing me another way another way to fight
Activity Grrrl trying to change the world She's gonna knock on your door Activity Grrl in an uptight world She's impossible to ignore
She spends her days involved in community things And at night she'll go out to a club where she likes to sing She teaches so the others will know There's more beneath the skin that doesn't show And she's looking at the challenge that tomorrow's bringing
Activity Grrrl trying to change the world She's gonna knock on your door Activity Grrl in an uptight world She's impossible to ignore
Hopes to fix the problems that come within her space And takes hurting people real serious you can see it on her face She can't accept that life is unfair She wants to think the others care And won't go away she's gonna stay right in your face
Activity Grrrl trying to change the world She's gonna knock on your door Activity Grrl in an uptight world She's impossible to ignore
Activity Grrrl trying to change the world She's gonna knock on your door Activity Grrl in an uptight world She's impossible to ignore
It starts when I get close to you I never know just what to do So much I wanna say But my nerves get in the way An' I pray my fears ain't showin' thru
Insecure - it's strange when I feel it Insecure - if I could feel I really had you for sure I wouldn't be so insecure
I sit an' wonder what to do Waitin' for my big time interview As my palms start to sweat 'Bout this job I'm tryin' to get Someone says "Hey, Jett, it's time for you" (I bet they're right now)
Insecure - everybody feels a little Insecure - tell ya one thing I know for sure We're all a little insecure
You shouldn't care what people think of you All you can do is be yourself No matter how they see you You really can't be somethin' else
You're not the only one that feels this way Inside they look the same as you When it seems never ending Remember they're pretendin' too
Insecure - natural to feel a little Insecure - everybody gets it an' there ain't no cure We're all a little insecure
Insecure - natural to feel a little Insecure - everybody gets it an' there ain't no cure We're all a little insecure
I change the channel cause the news looks bad A great society is breakin' down in front of me
An' our leaders seem so unaware It's plain to see that they just don't care We could do so much we gotta get in touch with reality - yeah
It's not so hard to see what's goin' on But no one answers when I say
I'm wonderin' - is anyone out there? Wonderin' - does anyone care? I'm wonderin' - does anyone see what I see? Or is it just me? Is it just me?
You can see it from coast to coast An' it's the children who are sufferin' most Some with no shoes on their feet, no good food they can eat Where's the dignity for them?
Here in this land of opportunity They should deserve a better break
I'm wonderin' - is anyone out there? Wonderin' - does anyone care? I'm wonderin' - does anyone see what I see? Or is it just me? Is it just me?
An' now I pray for you America Don't let the dream go and slip away
I'm wonderin' - is anyone out there? Wonderin' - does anyone care? I'm wonderin' - does anyone see what I see?
Things don't matter so much today I really can't think too straight Don't wanna make these tears go away Cuz I believe that you could be my fate
Ya got me singin' a love song, I'm so consumed, so consumed Thinking that you can do no wrong, I'm so consumed, so consumed
These tears are tears of happiness I just need a little control To hold it inside and hide my bliss An' hope it will be enough to feed my hungry little soul, yeah
Ya got me singin' a love song, I'm so consumed, so consumed Thinking that you can do no wrong, I'm so consumed, so consumed
Never off the phone, even when you're not home I gotta hear your voice, I got no choice I'm hooked in tight but I feel no fright As we walk on slowly into the night, into the light, into ya
Ya got me singin' a love song, I'm so consumed, so consumed Thinking that you can do no wrong, I'm so consumed, so consumed
I watch my generation die I watch the heads of nations lie I watch the homeless on the streets I stand here helpless just Lookin' at my feet I watch the children run away The bullets fly where they should play I watch a junkie fade away I ain't got an answer But I sure got things to say Hey, I gotta find a way Cause the road is dark Gotta light my way Gotta fight the fear In my heart Oh, I pray I live to see A brighter day, hey hey
I watch the old folks sit alone They talk to ghosts they used to know Where are the wise men of the tribe Where are the midwives and the newborn's cry, yeah
Now if I could I'd turn back time Way back before there was corporate crime We'd fight the wind to plant our seed When the earth was stronger than human greed Hey, hey, I gotta find a way Cause night is dark Gotta light my way Gotta fight the fear In my heart Oh I pray I live to see A brighter day...hey, hey
I'm not tryin' to tell ya What's right or wrong I'm not trying to be clever You gotta hope things get better Even when they never...hey, hey, hey
Hey hey, I gotta find a way Cause road is dark Gotta light my way Gotta fight the fear In my heart Oh, I pray I live to see A brighter day...hey, hey
