"Careful, Kid" lyrics
"Careful, Kid"
If you know, you know
Well, I never really know
When you're coming in strong
But you waited too long
All the kicks in ribs
But they can really make you weak
And I'm coming back 'round
From a five-year rebound
Would you give me some time to grow up?
So you cut your teeth before I did
No one cares, be careful, kid
Be careful, kid (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
You're just a kid
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Be careful, kid
If you're ready or not, you're gonna get hit
Will you think how you think
Even though it does you harm?
And it harms me too
Another casualty of you
Would you give me one sign to go home?
So you done your time, you done your bit
You don't care, be careful, kid
Be careful, kid (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh), oh
You're just a kid
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Be careful, kid
If you're ready or not, you're gonna get hit
When you're looking at yourself, yeah, you're killing it
Leaving all your friends, picking up your shit (Oh)
Standing in the snow with a cigarette
Said you're gonna quit, but you never did (But you never did)
Make another show, is it over yet? (Oh)
You're working on yourself and you're killing it
If you're really in the wrong, then you're gonna get
Hit

Lisa Hannigan - "Fall" Hide your horses, hold your tongue
Hang the rich and spare the young
Who drain the spirits from the jars
Hop the fences, steal the cars
Run on fumes and from the north
And burn for us right through...
Roo Panes - "Little Giant" Thought that I was in my prime
But I was naked, dressed in my pride
You see through the things I hide
Yeah, still you said be yourself, you'll turn out alright
You made me run like I never run
Try...
Billie Marten - "Milk & Honey" Honey here we are
Dreaming in the dark
Trouble seems so far
Their thoughts were ours
But now we dream apart
Now we dream apart
Boiling water
But I'm just content with time well spent
Savor the taste...
Hiss Golden Messenger - "I Need A Teacher" Love me harder
Cry like thunder
Kick the floorboards
Paint it a different color
Another year older
Debt slightly deeper
Paycheck smaller
Goddamn I need a teacher
Rock me daddy, I'm still your kid...
Fionn Regan - "The Meetings Of The Waters" (Oohhh)
(Oohhh)
Ferns, they will bend
And the moon, it will send
Slide down your collar
Your bones, they will mend
I know they will
All quarried out
But not of your sting
I know your storm light...
