Lyrics - Everything You Said

Lyrics - Everything You Said

A song about the words that get said in the heat and then lived with for years. The Screaming Females register: the band is the anger, the voice is the person underneath it - composed, warm, telling the truth quietly while the wall of noise does the shouting. Voice-over-the-wall: present, intimate, cutting through.

Verse 1

Everything you said in the kitchen Everything you said at the door Everything you said to the ceiling When you thought I wasn't listening anymore

Chorus

I kept every word you gave me I can play them back in my sleep You wanted a fight You got a witness Everything you said, I keep

Verse 2

Everything you said in the car Everything you said at the light Everything you said to your mother When you thought I'd left for the night

Chorus

I kept every word you gave me I can play them back in my sleep You wanted a fight You got a witness Everything you said, I keep

Bridge

I don't want the apology I want the quiet back I want the house the way it was Before the words were facts

Chorus

I kept every word you gave me I can play them back in my sleep You wanted a fight You got a witness Everything you said, I keep

Outro

Everything you said Everything you said (turn it down)
