The Way
c. '15 Vlayman, derranged by Grankspoine

I know you feel you wanna keep every thing hidden
Ain't never gonna put nothin' on display
It ain't that you ever get to feelin' guilt-ridden, no
That ain't yer way 2x

And I know you cain't never really be happy
Ain't never gonna show you ever even feel OK
You never wanna seem close to what you really be, no
That ain't yer way 2x

I expect you'll reject any move I make toward you
Ain't never gonna acknowledge it's even close to OK
You never want no one to think they can afford you, no
That ain't yer way 2x

I don't know if I can show I ain't mean you no harm
And I wouldn't put you at risk for just a lay
There ain't no reason for you to feel alarm, no
That ain't my way 2x

I know I seem like the kind that always keeps things hidden
I ain't the kinda guy puts it on display
It ain't that I ever feel any kind of guilt-ridden, no
That ain't my way 2x

I don't know if we can go somewhere you'll feel alright
I don't know, mebbe somewhere we can keep it bright as day
There ain't no reason we can't do something in the light, no
Do it that way, it's OK 2x
Do it that way, it's OK, Pull down the shades

about

Vlayman image

Vlayman Chicago, Illinois

Fat, bald and old - could I be anymo' rock-n-roll?
I play guitar, bass, some keys and percussion, and I try to vocalize. I write and record, and I do so obsessively. Also, I like martoonies, a lot, and I raise my kids, whom I also like, a lot.
Look for me at the TapeOp and TalkBass forums, where I'm vvv, or in various bars in the Loop. ... more
