Say What You Mean Lyrics - Sam Phillips

I'll be desperate, I'll be lonely 

But I won't be ashamed 

No isolation, no terror unnamed 

You animated the dead to your dream 

Say what you mean 

Destiny's still locomotive desire 

Magnets set on you and thrown into the fire 

If you get branded and caught in between 

Say what you mean 

You'll despise and protect 

You'll fool and you'll grouse 

How hungry are you? 

How much can you lose? 

You know what I would do for you 

'Til it gets too late 

Just tell me straight 

The secrets that you want to know 

Are yours not mine 

Longing may kill me 

I can't keep my mind 

On my destruction 

My drugs and my dreams 

Say what you mean
