Say Anything
Jerome Lee Barlow
Say Something
If you want it so - I cheat you - and I say - it no longer hurts
Almost nothing, this harsh anguish of mine
If it's what you want - I put on - my best fake smile
And pretend I've never been who I am
I speak, but I do nothing, I think, but I say nothing
No more unhappiness, just smiles and singing
If you ask me - I bury - all my pains and miseries
I will hide it in a profound lost grave
I don't really know what I need, or I believe
Do whatever you desire with me, I don't care
But please say anything that may calm down
This feverish childlike heart of mine
And everything you may say, I will take it right away
I'll change my hair, the way I dress, renew my whole style
And then everything will be, like you always wanted it to be
But tell me something right now
I beg you say a few words right now
And it better be good and kind of crazy
Enough to calm me down
