I’ve seen you
You’ve never been yourself
That’s what you pay your shrink for
You’re mean, you thinking of no one but yourself
What do you think all the love’s for?
I only ever wanted the one with the flag
But all you ever wanted was a sixty dollar bag
And a cheap limousine for your deep pile dream
On the highway
Shut your mouth and bend down low
Sit back and watch the flowers grow
People change but it was never a game
Go wash your face and your hands cause we all l
Emotion Detector
When we lift the covers from our feelings
We expose our insecure spots
Trust is just as rare as devotion
Forgive us our cynical thoughts.
If we need too much attention
Not content with being cool
We must throw ourselves wide open
And start acting like a fool
If we need to much approval
Then the cuts can seem too cruel.
Right to the heart of the matter
Right to the beautiful part
Illusions are painfully shattered
Right where discovery starts
In the secret wells of emotion
Buried deep in our hearts.
It's true that love can change us
Never quite enough
Sometimes we are tender
Sometimes we're too tough
If we get too much attention
It gets hard to overrule
So often fragile power turns
To scorn and ridicule
Sometimes our big splashed
Are just ripples in the pool.
Right to the heart of the matter
Right to the beautiful part
Illusions, illusions are painfully shattered
Right where discovery starts
In the secret wells of emotion
Buried deep in our hearts.
Right to the heart of the matter
Right to the beautiful part
Illusions are painfully shattered
Right where discovery starts
In the secret wells of emotion
Buried deep in our hearts
Feelings run high.
Illusion, illusions are painfully shattered
Right where discovery starts
Feelings run high
Feelings run high.
