Speaking For Myself

Danny Peck


Speaking for myself 
Let me be the one to tell you 
Right to your face 
Speaking for myself 
Let me be the one 
To lead you out of this place 
Let me be the water boilin' 
In a pot of yesterdays 
Get high, start to cry 
One day you're gonna say 

Speaking for yourself 
Found out that you played a bigger part 
Than you knew 
Speaking for yourself 
Suddenly you found out there was more in you 
Speakin' like a neon burnin' soldier 
Fightin' for a righteous soul 
Get high, start to cry 
But one day I know you'll know 

It's your time, It's your turn 
It's your life, It's your world 

Speaking for ourselves 
We stood up to the night 
Crashing down on our head 
Speaking for ourselves 
We stood up to the lies 
Spoken by the living dead 
Stood up to the violence 
Turning heroes into killers 
Turning lovers into a widow's child 
Get high, start to cry 
One day you'll realize 

It's your time, It's your turn 
It's your life, It's your world 

Speaking for myself 
Let me be the one to tell you 
Right to your face 
Speaking for myself 
Let me be the one 
To take you out of this place 
And I'm speaking for myself
