Lyrics
Say what you mean
You can see all my life scratched out upon my face
A history of every kind of hurt you can embrace
I've taken shit from every boy and man that I've been with
Gotta bleeding heart that don't know how to quit
I see in you so much more that what you dare to show
Every touch pulses with interminable flow
I've never lived my life by playing safe or taking compromise
I would be the fool to be that wise
Oh so they say that you're the cheating kind
And they say you're gonna take me down this time
Still I won't believe that till I here it come from you
You can shoot me down like no one else can do
Pull that pin and in an instance blow my life away
I Can't think of any better way
You don't call when you spend the night out with your friends
You just stall me every time I ask you where you've been
I never learn about the rage that's going on inside your head
A hidden law to make sure never a tear is shed
Oh let me knock you out and bring you round again
If only then it makes yousay just what you mean
Chorus
Take that gun and make sure that your ain is strong and true
If that's the kindest thing that you could ever do
And i don't know what it is or what I'm dealing with
but there's a beauty and a strength in you that I just can't explain
If you could fill me in
