Umphrey's Mcgee

Speak Up
So my conscience said, "Don't you ever think that you're asking for too much?" Yeah I know right now that I got more than enough Keep it off the record 'cause that's no crime Yeah keeps me honest, well most of the time Every little thing about myself that I come to dread Every little thing, every little thing, every little It all becomes a permanent part of me instead Ooh, maybe you're right, this time I should stay Ooh, tell me why you think that I should meet you halfway Ooh, tell me what you want, tell me what you really want What do you really want from me Ooh, 'cause I don't think it's right, you say it's a waste of time That's not the way it's supposed to be And all those words that nobody heard and you wish that you had said There was never a time, never a place I never really had anything worth saying It's like every little song you heard in your head and you wish you had sung It's singing "ooo la la, yeah, I'm still stepping underneath your toes" Ooh, maybe you're right, this time I should stay Ooh, tell me why you think that I should meet you halfway Ooh, tell me what you want, tell me what you really want What do you really want from me Ooh, cause I don't think it's right, you say it's a waste of time That's not the way it's supposed to be Speak up, speak up You better tell me now please and I won't betray if you got something to say you gotta say it right now Can you tell me now please and I won't betray if you got something to say you gotta say it right now Aus Songtexte Mania
