If Only I Had a Dictionary
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've always imagined you with your face on a twelve gauge!
You've tested me
Did you want me to stand still?
I never thought that this would happened
But apparently time stands still
Look up to the sky
I can see you from here
I told you to move
And I will be here
I've known you for so long and now you right here
What should I do with you?
Now you're standing up
And I'm looking into your eyes
I'll see you this last time
I swear I tried it all
Mouth to mouth and heart to heart
Baby, it's not enough
Holy smokes!
Who knew the safety was off
I did!
Boom!
Oh god I admit I did it
But you know you deserved the bullet
She's So D-O-N-E Down:
This is where we come to life
Telescopes catch from across the room
My hands are shaking hearts are beating and I can't see straight
Lucky me walking right over to you
Right into your life and I said come with me
Run with me
Can't you see that the sky is falling
Is it me or is it cold in here
Take off your jacket, let down your long hair and dance with me
Is it you or is it hot in here
It's not nearly hot enough I'm sure we can turn it up dance with me
Fast or slow however you want it
And we both know
How this ends for us all
And we both know
What it means to be alive
Anyone can tell an answer from a question
Answer me!
Get up, get out, this is a wake up call
No need to stop in the bathroom hall
You know me but I know you
You'll never see my face again
What are you looking at?
