LISA LOEB - Firecracker lyrics

rate me

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