You

(альбом: The Velvet Rope - 1997)

Here I am in your face
Telling truths and not your old lies
Seems to me that you care
And I know that you're running out of time
See, ya can't get away
I'll be here forever and again
Whispering in your ear
Do believe 'cause you know you cannot win

Spent most your life pretending not to be
The one you are but who you choose to see
Learned to survive in your fictitious world
Does what they think of you determine your worth?
If special's what you feel when you're with them
Taken away, you feel 'less than' again
That's right

You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Trying to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointing the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Trying to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointing the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you

There's a feeling inside
No, you cannot change it right away
Gotta make a try
And with time it'll start to go away
I'll be here when you need
That one to sit and cry to
'Cause I'm the you you forgot
The only one you know you cannot lie to

Bitter you'll be if you don't change your ways
When you hate you you hate everyone that day
Unleash this scared child that you've grown into
You cannot run for you, can't hide from you
Can't hide from you
That's right

You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Trying to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointing the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean (Say what you mean)
Trying to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror my friend (Check in)
No lies will be told then
Pointing the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
You gotta mean what you say (You can't blame nobody)
You gotta say what you mean
Trying to please everyone (You can't blame nobody)
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror my friend
No lies will be told then (You can't blame nobody)
Pointing the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you

E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
(You can't blame nobody but)
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
(You can't blame nobody but you)
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
(You can't blame nobody)
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
(Ah, that's right)

You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean (Say what you mean)
Trying to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs (Sacrifice your own needs)
Check in the mirror my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointing the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean (Yeah, yeah)
Trying to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs (Sacrifice your own needs)
Check in the mirror my friend (Check in the mirror)
No lies will be told then
Pointing the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
