lyrics

Don't you think if I was scared
I would have ran away now
I would have taken my bags
And thrown them on the nearest train

Don't you think if I was lying
I would have looked away now
I would have broken this contact
But I stared straight back in your eyes

And I know, I care, A little too much
And I know, I care, Maybe not enough
And I know, I care, Just the right amount
For you to crawl under my skin now

Don't you think if I was crazy
I would have been admitted
I would have been taking pills
And throwin them straight down my throat

Don't you think if I was longing
I would have ran straight back
I would have begged and pleaded
But I learned to walk away from that

And I know, I care, A little too much
And I know, I care, Maybe not enough
And I know, I care, Just the right amount
For you to crawl under my skin now

So maybe I was afraid, I ran out East
Straight back home, on my scared little feet
I thought I could escape, I thought I could outrun
All my own fears, but I could not leave my tongue.
But I found my weapon, I found my heart
It was right where I left it, It was hidden beneath this guitar
And I found a new carrier, some one to keep it safe
Her name is hidden in these songs, she's my keepsake

I know, I care, A little too much
I know, I care, Maybe not enough
I know, I care, Just the right amount
For you to crawl under my skin now

Sound of a Smirk New York

A rock band hailing from New York, Sound of a Smirk uses quiet croons, harsh yells and pungent lyrics mixed with smooth rhythm chords to display honest songwriting. Adding the quick-handed, pulsing, and pounding drum beats to the soaring and sometimes cutting leads to the filling and grooving bass, you can feel yourself sink into a sonic landscape coated in whole-hearted vocals. ... more
