Explosions on the day you wake up Needing somebody and you've learned It's okay to be afraid But it will never be the same I've loved and I've lost You trembled like you'd seen a ghost And I gave in I lack the things you need the most You said where have

They taped over your mouth Scribbled out the truth with their lies You little spies Crush, crush (Two, three, four!) Rock and roll, hey Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now?

I love my man I'm a liar if I say I don't Ever since I've been your babe I ain't good looking And my hair ain't curled But I'll quit my man I'm a liar if I say I won't I've been your slave, baby I've been your slave

(Kelly/Mann) We twisted you arm over Chinese And led you astray Offered the world as we know it And a pittance in pay And your fortune read "Don't believe a word they've said" Blood through your sleeve, I just couldn't Believe that you'd been To the shop

If you know this how you living, put your hands up! Where they at? If you from the streets like me, put your hands up! D Boys on my tease, put your hands up! Independent bad bitches, put your hands up! If you rep your city like me, put your hands up!

I said I'm sorry I say I'm sorry Why don't you write me Call me on the phone Send Western Union You can find me home You know I bled you Led you on a lie You say I fooled you

I just want to touch and kiss And I wish that I could be with you tonight You give me butterflies inside, inside and I All you gotta do is walk away and pass me by Don't acknowledge my smile when I try to say hello to you, yeah And all you gotta do is

If teardrops could be bottled There'd be swimming pools filled by models Told a tight dress is what makes you a whore If "I love you" was a promise Would you break it, if you're honest Tell the mirror what you know she's heard before I don't wanna be you

I believe I'll shake 'em on down I believe I'll shake 'em on down, Well I've been mistreated babe When I done quit hollerin' baby I believe I shake 'em on down Get my babe won't be late You know by that I mean seconds late Ah must I holler Must I shake

It's a promise that you cannot break Was your life worth dying for? The universe survives on give and take As above, so below Dismantled piece by piece, what's left will not decease As within, so without The seasons bring relief Death is an open door
