"I Can Hardly Speak" lyrics
"I Can Hardly Speak"
When I turn out, not a word out
It's my reality
Then I curl up, it won't take much
To stand in front and see
I got that ego, what do I know?
It don't mean much to me
Fall away now, on my way down
It's all I know and I can hardly speak
There's a lighthouse, I can hide out
Staring out to sea
Shine a word through, did it reach you?
Or echo back to me?
I got that ego, what do I know?
When I can hardly see
Fall away now, on my way down
It's all I know and I can hardly speak
A picture on the wall, looking back at me
And I can't even talk
I'm floating in a dream
(I'm floating in a dream)
You say I've a bent tooth
Well, I don't even like you
Want me to leave my cocoon
Where does that leave you?
You say you can see my bones
But I can see right through you
Too many faces to please
I can't see a place for me
I come home to write it all (For me)
I come home to write it all (For me)
I come home to write it all (For me)
I come home, I come home
I come home to write it all (A picture on the wall)
I come home to write it all (Looking back at me)
I come home to write it all (And I can't even talk)
I come home, I come home (I'm floating in a dream)
I'm floating in a dream

The Mowgli's - "Wasting Time" Like a dream
Try to run away but
You can't move your feet
Got a lot to say
You can't say anything
You can barely breathe
Like you're lost at sea
In a winter freeze
A new start
Try to make change
But...
Mystery Jets - "Wrong Side Of The Tracks" There's a world outside your window and it needs you, son
Lunatics are reading Bibles and are buying guns
No matter what they say, no matter what you've done
Their words ain't worth the paper that...
Mt. Joy - "Acrobats" Amicable acrobats high above the aftermath
Graceful when we talk trash, so no one knows we want it back
We live like Christmas on credit cards
It's always Christmas where you are
Look alive, don't...
Overcoats - "The Fool" Both paths to the same thing
Balancing on shakey ground
Push back from the onset
Close the door or open it oh
This dream is oppressive

Some days I'm a warrior,...
The War On Drugs - "Red Eyes" Come and see
Where are we
This everything
On my knees
To beat it down
To get to my soul
I guessed my way
Anyone can tell it's you coming
But baby, don't mind
Leave it on a lie
Leave it your own way...
