Lisa Loeb - Firecracker
Album: Firecracker
Intro: x2
Verse:
You want to suffer and show me you're angry,
Fight with your fists up or call for your mommy
You want to suffer and show me you're angry
Spend time alone, find a stick in the basement
Drink water and gold dust and live on impatience.
Slaughtered for weakness, electric like static
Slaughtered, you're weak - there's no need to speak
Chorus:
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
You step on the sparks
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
I shouldn't be any great inspiration
I never got in your way
I should never have to chase you
You were the one who ran away
If you could feel the pain your confusion has caused me
You would have stopped before you spoke
Listening to lies, the pain doesn't suit me
He gift that you gave me, I put it away
I couldn't look at it, it made me think of you
You get in the way
Chorus:
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
You step on the sparks
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
Spend time alone, find a stick in the basement
Drink water and gold dust and die of impatience.
Electric like static, and no need to speak.
It's not right but it's not wrong
So I wrote this song
So I wrote this song- is that what you want
You got what you want - does it make you feel better?
A smirk on your face and a gun at my head,
You come to my place and ask to be fed
Chorus:
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
You step on the sparks
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
You get in the way
You get in the way
You want to suffer and show me your angry
Fight with your fists up or call for your mommy
You want to suffer and show me your angry
