Scared Straight

歌詞

Washington's on the one I'm in the middle of speaking And you're under the gun Seething, leave it to the lone nut It's unappealing in someone so young Plaintive, you're feeling so washed up And you mean it when you say you're done Five lanes of freeway But it's all gone dark You called to say you're gonna run Well, Can you wait? Can you stand it? Are you brave or are you scared straight? scared straight? She didn't want you to: Speak right, She didn't want you to: be strong, She didn't want you to: act nice, She didn't want you to: take so long She didn't want you to: Call time, She didn't want you to: seem tired, She didn't want you to: leave mad, She didn't want you to: get so wired Can you wait? Can you stand it? Are you brave or are you scared straight? scared straight? Maybe you belong to someone Maybe you have finally met them Maybe smoke belongs in the sky Maybe I hate it when you cry Can you wait? Can you stand it? Are you brave or are you scared straight? scared straight? You were hurt so you got hard You were cursed and scolded and scared You were searched for, then ignored You want to burn the liars? You'll set us both on fire You're faking, so I'm pretend sleeping Waiting for this to be fun It's true little miss mean mini-bar guard We're gonna have to try something new Let me breathe Let me breathe Let me breathe Let me breath fire down on you Let me breath fire down on you
