"When Mute Tongues Can Speak" lyrics
"When Mute Tongues Can Speak"
When mute tongues can speak
And relate their need
I make fun of skins laying in a dark room
In a piglet's eye
If the dream had wings
Then the nest of feathers could freeze without them
I never knew how to fear correctly
When we were seven we would hit directly
By some misgiving that you dealt ineptly
All was forgiven when you knelt to help me
See the boy of smiles
With the teardrop shape
Shuddering and crying with the wind knocked from him
And the kids just stare
Is this guy for real
Some mistakes are all too apparent
It's nothing personal - just a lousy memory
Dissected birds are my adopted family
I pool myself until I see anemones
All was forgiven when you knelt to help me
In a can of boys
Across a crowd of thorns
Everyone is laughing all expensive painful
Windbreaker is torn
Friendly tree has scars
Experience is necessary to be normal
I never knew how to fear correctly
When we were seven we would hit directly
By some misgiving that you dealt ineptly
All was forgiven when you knelt to help me
It's me

Matthew Sweet - "Looking At The Sun" Do you really want to run away with me?
Would you really like to run away with me?

Watched you...
The Lemonheads - "Something's Missing" It's no trick to decide on your own
(Something's missing)
The feeling when you feel it fine later on

A shower you can't depend on at all

It's too hot, then...
Guided By Voices - "Much Better Mr. Buckles" Time is gone out
If you pick up the weekend
Precisely, do you see
The weak ones of a shifting ethic
Are packing up?
So let me know if you go
Much better Mr. Buckles
The kind nod of his employment...
Sloan - "Sugartune" I wrote for you
This sugartune
To help you through
What you've gotta do
When you're on the ground
And keep fallin' down
Remember how I made this sound
Sound
When you're on your own
Feeling all...
Dinosaur Jr. - "On The Brink" I know I've been what's in your mind
You could use it, babe
If ever I could let you go
Is that hard to take
It's not often
You soften up enough to smile
I'm damaged, I'm sandwiched
In here...
