Rub Some Dirt On It by Emery - Album Lyrics & Tracks

4 ContributorsWizard LyricsHello I know I've called a thousand times

The phone just, just sends me to your recorded voice

No need to call me back

I'm doing okay

I mean I was thinking about you and me

How I knew, I knew when I lost us

You were by the doorway getting ready to leave for work

I couldn't say goodbye

I couldn't say anything

 

I stood there by myself staring at the bright sun

It seemed so far away but I wished I could have gone

The world slowed down and kept me right where I stood

Just a loser that never could

 

You don't have to wait for me

Just, just know that I don't have the strength to chase after you any more

And it was clear to see

But I could never have asked you

 

Why was your hand wrapped in his?

I feel like I spoke it into existence, oh

 

Why can't I mean more to you than

A momentary feeling

That brings us to the end

[Chorus]

Lovely, lovely lady

Lovely lady

Please be mine

 

Lovely, lovely lady

Lovely lady

Please be mine

 

[Spoken word]

Welcome to the [?]

We're a little band called Emery

Tonight on the drums, Mister David Powell

Woo!

Layin' it down on the six-string, Mister Christopher Keene

And of course on keys, Mister Matthew Carter

Mister Brian Devin Shelton on the bass

Performance artist extraordinaire, Mistеr Joshua R. Head

And of course, I am Mister Tobias Johansеn Morell

 

[Chorus]

Lovely, lovely lady

Lovely lady

Please be mine

 

Lovely, lovely lady

Lovely lady

Please be mine

4 ContributorsI Don’t Know You at All LyricsClose my eyes and hear the footsteps coming

Calm my mind but still my heart is pumping

Can't break free from this now

Nowhere to escape

I wish I could leave it all behind

 

Cover my head to drown out all the screaming

Pull back the sheets to cover up my feelings

Am I only dreaming to think I could believe in you

 

I don't know you at all

I don't know you at all

I don't know you at all

I don't know you at all

 

The stretch of shame if his breath

Every word he says feels dead

You try to turn and walk away

Then feel his hand across your face

You ever leave or take these kids

He said, you'll wish you nеver did

Don't cry, don't say you'll run away

I guess you'll live with thе pain

How far can you let this go?

How many scars can you now show?

You cover up his lies and take the fall

Now I don't know you at all

 

 

Is this were we give up on this?

 

We've all got demons hiding

Deep down inside our minds

But there's no time to reconcile

The truth and the lies

 

I don't know you at all (x4)

I don't know you

3 ContributorsDaniel, I’m Not Gonna Make It Go Ahead Without Me LyricsDaniel, I'm not gonna make it

Go ahead without me

The speakers filled with voices

Missed my turn, had to circle back again

I stopped and I looked at the distant cars there

Heading towards me they seemed so far way

So I let go of the brake effortlessly

 

He passed through me

All of the world stopped as far as I could see

 

Hey kid this isn't the movies

(Hey kid, hey kid, you better run)

But it sure felt like everyone was watching me

(Oh no, oh no, yeah yeah)

The sound and lights aren't for everyone

(You screwed it up again)

Get out of the kitchen if you can't stand the heat

 

Stand up, stand up, walk right now or you never will

(Stand up, stand up, walk right now or you never will)

Stand up, stand up, walk right now or you never will

 

Feels like a mountain in the winter

You don't know if you'll return or return the same

No one's gonna swoop in and save the day

 

 

Let's get the story straight in your head

Slow your breathing stop your shaking hands

 

The body was never made for days like these

Not knowing if you are walking towards a dead man

Lying there with lives to end

And is this how it ends

On a side street, just asphalt and destinies colliding

 

Hey kid this isn't the movies

(Hey kid, hey kid, you better run)

But it sure felt like everyone was watching me

(Oh no, oh no, yeah yeah)

The sound and lights aren't for everyone

(You screwed it up again)

Get out of the kitchen if you can't stand the heat

 

Stand up, stand up, walk right now or you never will

(Stand up, stand up, walk right now or you never will)

Stand up, stand up, walk right now or you never will

 

I saw the men, running towards him

I saw the blue light

I don't think I was breathing

I never wanted more to run from a fight

(It was the wrong time)

 

 

I swear I'll fix this

It was a wrong turn

I swear this will all work out

It was the wrong time

I swear I'll fix this

It was a wrong turn

I swear this will all work out

2 ContributorsBe Cool LyricsHey be cool man

Everyone here's a little tipsy

Unclinch your fist and

Let’s get ourselves a drink

 

Halfway in the scene

The circles you'd been running

In your head, in your head

Not even second best

 

Be cool man

Don't run your mouth in here again

You will find the end

Bliss is hollow

 

Her words kept you both there

Like cement in your bones

A teenage dream is hard to wake from

When the weight keeps creeping up

 

Stare ahеad, pretend

Let this all еnd or begin

Flirt with anxiety but try not to let it in

 

Pray a taste will calm you down

Somewhere on the outskirts of this town

Early nights can make you drown

The screen can hide what you have found

 

 

The lips of lovers find there way to another

Your voice forgets how to make a sound

 

But not like this

Nothing like this

 

Fill your lungs

(Get your feet on the floor)

With a secret

(Just 50ft from the door)

Your mother

(You parked a little ways)

Kept herself

(Down the street)

When you find

(Your pockets full)

Hiding places

(To match your thoughts)

And habits

(So make your plans)

You don’t really need anyone else

(To never get caught)

 

But I saw her eyes catch mine

 

Slow it down, don't lose control!

 

 

Find your car keys

Get up and drag yourself out of this place

 

So be cool man, just be cool man

Be cool
