IOU Lyrics

作曲 : Meg Remy/Rich Morel

作词 : Meg Remy

(You didn't choose to be born)

And I never heard of anyone who has

I never known no baby with a plan

For how to survive, how to stay alive

(You shower with your silver on)

And you brush you hair with a round brush you keep in your bag

And now I do the same, it seems like the only whole plan

To lead a double life, two chances to get it right

(Hidden for a moment)

But I could see it in your almost drowning face

That you don't know what's up, what's down, what to do

And that's how come all those tattoos, and I'm talking about all of mine too

IOU

IOU

I do

I do

I do

I do

When my brother learned to drive

He said no car's gonna pass him by, no way

Yeah, he said he would cut the throat of anyone who tried

And that was just one of his lies, let me tell you mine

(I've never cried)

One tear in my whole damn life

And I know full well what makes the shadows on my walls

Because I cast them there all by myself

Stay in same way

Lay a rose on my stage

And if you want my woman wet

It's like a bird building a nest, give it time

If I can do it, if I can do it, then you can do it, too

Objects in the mirror are so much closer than they appear

You went too deep into the Big Deep

And that's the trouble with being born

I'm going to put to bed the shame that I keep

It's the only way to stay alive, I just want to be alive

(What you hide is true)

God don't take sides, but I do, yeah

(What you hide is true)

God don't take sides, but I do

I do, I do, and so do you

Stay in same way

Lay a rose on my stage

And if you want my woman wet

It's like a bird building a nest, give it time

If I can do it, if I can do it, then you can do it, too

Objects in the mirror are so much closer than they appear

 

And you appear...
