"Better Be Quiet Now" lyrics
"Better Be Quiet Now"
Wish you gave me your number
Wish I could call you today
Just to hear a voice
I got a long way to go, I'm getting further away
If I didn't know the difference
Living alone would probably be okay
It wouldn't be lonely
I got a long way to go, I'm getting further away
A lot of hours to occupy, it was easy when I didn't know you yet
Things I'd have to forget
But I better be quiet now, I'm tired of wasting my breath
Carrying on and getting upset
Maybe I have a problem
But that's not what I wanted to say
I'd prefer to say nothing
I got a long way to go, I'm getting further away
Had a dream as an army man with an order just to march in my place
While a dead enemy screams in my face
But I better be quiet now, I'm tired of wasting my breath
Carrying on, not over it yet
Wish I knew what you're doing
And why you want to do it this way
So I can't go the distance
I got a long way to go, I'm getting further away
I got a long way to go, I'm getting further away
Thanks to Kristin for adding these lyrics.

And we've been burned for many crimes
We have ended many lives

The houses at night
Flying alone
A teenage spaceship
I was a teenage spaceship
Landing at night

Wilco - "She's A Jar" She's a jar
With a heavy lid
My pop quiz kid
A sleepy kisser
A pretty war
With feelings hid
She begs me not to miss her
She says forever
To light a fuse
We could use
A hand full of wheel...
Fiona Apple - "I Know" So be it, I'm your crowbar
If that's what I am so far
Until you get out of this mess
And I will pretend
That I don't know of your sins
Until you are ready to confess
But all the time, all the time...
