Tick Tick Boom - Louder Than Words lyrics
rate me[JONATHAN]<br />
Why do we play with fire?<br />
Why do we run our finger through the flame?<br />
Why do we leave our hand on the stove,<br />
Although we know, we're in for some pain?<br />
<br />
Oh, why do we refuse to hang a light,<br />
When the streets are dangerous?<br />
Why does it take an accident,<br />
Before the truth gets through to us?<br />
<br />
Cages or wings,<br />
Which do you prefer?<br />
Ask the birds<br />
<br />
Fear or love, baby<br />
Don't say the answer<br />
Actions speak louder than words<br />
<br />
Why should we try to be our best<br />
When we can just get by and still gain?<br />
Why do we nod our heads<br />
<br />
[MICHAEL and JONATHAN]<br />
Although we know<br />
<br />
[MICHAEL]<br />
The boss is wrong as rain?<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN]<br />
Why should we blaze a trail<br />
When the well worn path Seems safe and<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN and SUSAN]<br />
So inviting?<br />
<br />
[SUSAN]<br />
How, as we travel, can we<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN and SUSAN]<br />
See the dismay<br />
And keep from fighting?<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN MICHAEL AND SUSAN]<br />
Cages or wings, Cages or wings,<br />
Which do you prefer?<br />
Ask the birds Ah:<br />
<br />
[ALL]<br />
Fear or love, baby<br />
Don't say the answer<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN MICHAEL AND SUSAN]<br />
<br />
Actions speak louder than Louder than, louder than:<br />
Words<br />
<br />
What does it take<br />
To wake up a generation?<br />
<br />
[ALL]<br />
How can you make someone<br />
Take off and fly?<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN]<br />
If we don't wake up<br />
And shake up the nation<br />
We'll eat the dust<br />
Of the world wondering why<br />
<br />
[SUSAN]<br />
Why do we stay with lovers<br />
<br />
[SUSAN and JONATHAN]<br />
Who we know, down deep<br />
<br />
[SUSAN]<br />
Just aren't right?<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN]<br />
Why would we rather<br />
<br />
[ALL]<br />
Put ourselves through hell<br />
Than sleep alone at night?<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN]<br />
Why do we follow leaders who never lead?<br />
<br />
[MICHAEL]<br />
Why does it take catastrophe to start a revolution<br />
<br />
[MICHAEL and SUSAN]<br />
If we're so free?<br />
Tell me why<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN]<br />
Someone tell me why<br />
So many people bleed<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN MICHAEL AND SUSAN]<br />
Cages or wings, Cages or wings,<br />
Which do you prefer?<br />
Ask the birds Ah:<br />
<br />
[ALL]<br />
Fear or love, baby<br />
Don't say the answer<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN MICHAEL AND SUSAN]<br />
Actions speak louder than Louder than, Louder than,<br />
Louder than, Louder than<br />
<br />
[ALL]<br />
Cages or wings,<br />
Which do you prefer?<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN MICHAEL AND SUSAN]<br />
Ask the birds Ah:<br />
<br />
[ALL]<br />
Fear or love, baby<br />
Don't say the answer<br />
<br />
[JONATHAN MICHAEL AND SUSAN]<br />
Actions speak louder Louder than, Louder than<br />
They speak louder Louder than, Louder than<br />
Actions speak louder than words!
