Lyrics > J - L > Just Surrender > You´d Be In Great Shape If You Ran Like Your Mouth
You´d Be In Great Shape If You Ran Like Your Mouth
(album: We´re In Like Sin)
Construct a better me
You´ll long to see
My parts have gone missing
Scattered like debris
Across a world that I once called my own
Six feet deep jealous of the world above
No longer wander the streets
No more talk of love
On bridges meant for better feet
I once thought I would do you proud
You run your mouth off
Do you think you´re talking to me?
I can´t sleep when everything I ever believed
Was broken and stolen from me
Conversing with new ghosts to replace me
I hope they cherish you when they share your sheets
´Cause lord knows that I would give my life
Believe me giving up was easy
I try but you can never see me
In your dreams my memory lives on
Even when I´m gone
The more I look I see an enemy
You´ll never put your arms around this memory
I´ve charted your weakness your terror has ended
I´ll rescue the pieces and mend all the damage
Did you think that it was going to change?
Every name that you burned and buried all along the way
Don´t ask don´t tell
Who needs details
When the lives you wreck are the lives that will prevail
