"Wrap Your Arms Around Me"

"Wrap Your Arms Around Me"



I concede that you were right about this place
I can make a perfect likeness of your body if I trace
I can hold you until you turn out the light
and I can't see

Do you believe that we are all innately good
Do you think that you would love me until tomorrow if you could
Would you please turn down the radio
so we can speak

I put my hands around your neck and you wrap your arms around me
Put my hands around your neck and you wrap your arms around me
I put my hands around your neck and you wrap your arms around me

I regret every time I raised my voice
And it wouldn't be that bright of me to say I had no choice.
I can kiss your eyes your hair your neck
until we forget

I concede that you were right about this place
I can make a perfect likeness of your body if I trace
I can hold you until we turn out the light
and I can't see
I can't see.

"Yes! Yes!! Yes!!!"

"Yes! Yes!! Yes!!!"


[Verse 1:]
Enough is enough is enough is enough is
Enough is enough is enough again
I called your bluff 'cause you think you're so tough
Because you can make enemies out of friends
I am getting sleepy, I'm in your command
Yes yes yes I understand
Yes yes yes I understand

[Verse 2:]
Over and over and over and over and
Over and over and over again
The experts concur so we're sure it occurred
We infer the sword is mightier than the pen
You are in Atlanta; I am in a band
Yes yes yes I'm in a band
Yes yes yes I understand

[Verse 3:]
A fact is a fact is a fact is a fact is
A fact is a fact to misunderstand
And all the detractors who question the cracks
Have been asked to retract or face reprimand
You are always lying
I am on the lam
Yes yes yes I understand

[Chorus:]
Repetition of suspicion
Takes a lie and makes it true

[Verse 4:]
Nearer and nearer and nearer and nearer and
Nearer and nearer to our demise
The fear we adhere to appears to be steering
Our ears to where we're only hearing lies
With us or against us, the line is in the sand
Yes yes yes I understand

[Chorus:]
Repetition of suspicion
Takes a lie and makes it true

"You Run Away"

"You Run Away"



You run away
You could turn and stay
But you run away from me.

I tried to be your brother
You cried and ran for cover
I made a mess, who doesn’t
I did my best but it wasn’t enough

You run away
You could turn and stay
But you run away from me.

I’ll give you something can cry about
One thing you should try it out
Hold a mirror shoulder high
When you’re older look you in the eye
When you’re older look you in the eye

I tried but you tried harder
I lied but you lied smarter
You made me guess who was it
I did my best but it wasn’t enough

OOOOHHHHHHHOOOHHH

You run away
You could turn and stay
But you run away from me

You run away (I tried to be your brother)
You could turn and stay (You cried and ran for cover)
But you run away from me (I made a mess, who doesn’t, I did my best but it wasn’t enough)

But that’s not something to cry about (crrryyyy!)
It’s not something to lie about

You run away (I tried to be your brother)
You could turn and stay (You cried and ran for cover)
But you run away from me (I made a mess, who doesn’t, I did my best but it wasn’t enough)

"You Will Be Waiting"

"You Will Be Waiting"


As we walk together through the autumn, nearing winter
Through the dying leaves and trees we call our home and native land,
You say you don't believe a thing I say, I say you don't believe a thing
You say you can't believe how I don't understand

[Chorus:]
But I Know
That you will be waiting
Oh I know
That you will be waiting
Oh I know
You Will be waiting
Waiting there for me

You say you cannot live with me, you need your own identity
And now we air our laundry on national TV
And so you hate my arrogance, my smothering and sitting on the fence,
But I'm afraid of the hard permanence of letting you go free

[Chorus]

I'm so sick of fighting and that effigy you're lighting looks
An awful lot like whose name I just can't quite place
And though you say it's not supposed to be me or any entity
Still through the flames and smoke I see I recognize that face

[Chorus]

And you were someone who would
Always tell me things I don't know,
And tell me where to go
But there I'll always go
Whether or not you're waiting
I don't care if you'll be waiting
But please say that you will be waiting there for me
