Honeyed Words Lyrics - Stiff Little Fingers

(Jake Burns) 

Time after time 

The world is pressing down 

On your shoulders 

I know how you feel 

Like you're the only one 

Taking orders 

It's hard to come to terms 

With what seems so unfair 

But somewhere in your life 

You've got someone who cares 

Chorus: 

And I'll speak those honeyed words 

Yeah, I'll speak those honeyed words 

'cause I know them all 

Don't get worn down 

It's much too easy to 

Be defeated 

Stand strong and proud 

And let them know 

That you won't be beaten 

And if you start to waver 

Or you start to shake 

Just stand up and be counted 

Don't begin to break 

(Chorus) 

So if you think you'll weaken 

Resolution overthrown 

Remember all we've said 

And you are not alone 

(Chorus)
