For What It's Worth - Buffalo Springfield

Wonder how you deal with the damage From all the emotions you couldn't manage From all of the trauma you couldn't heal from Mental blocks you couldn't build from All of the walls you couldn't knock down Ashamed of the thoughts you would jot down I take offense and send shots now I get defensive and I lock down Some nights I cry myself to sleep That's the only way I can sleep Wake up and plan a new release Winnin' but the game got me beat The land suffer when you mislead the sheep Knew you couldn't throw but you let me run deep Silly me I hope you heal from All of the emotions that you buried All of the babies you miscarried All of the pain you couldn't face Pictures you painted can't be erased Broken hearts can't be replaced Look at what you made out mistakes Grateful don't mean you doing great Lost ya self but you never lost faith Let the song play Askin' you to move like I ain't in my own way Askin' you to move like you the reason that I'm stuck Held a nigga down you the reason that I'm up Look at all this water in my cup It still ain't enough I'm thirsty Price don't determine if you worthy I would act a cow til you heard me Value determine if you worthy Are you worthy? I think you worthy If I could give anything to you I'd put a string on the moon I'd put a rope on the sun Here's a lil gift from ya son If I could give anything to you I'd put a house on a hill I'd fill ya bank up with bills Gon take a break you could chill If I could give anything to you I'd give anything for you If I could give anything to you I'd give everything to you I hope you heal from All of the emotions that you buried All of the babies you miscarried All of the pain you couldn't face Pictures you painted can't be erased Broken hearts can't be replaced Look at what you made out mistakes Grateful don't mean you doing great Lost ya self but you never lost faith

I think that it's high time we had a talk I think that we're making a big mistake I've been feeling lately the magic is gone Are we just together for convenience sake, baby I don't believe it (feeling) I don't think that's true (tied down) It'll just pass if we allow it to (need to break free) It's just a stage we're going through (they say clean cuts) I think you're just restless for something new (heal much faster) Baby, Feeling like we pay our dime And all we get in return Is a piece of each other's time Are we just Taxi Dancing Lost somewhere in a slow dance for two And the band that was playing Has finally stopped playing our favorite song Are we just Taxi Dancing You're paying for me and I'm paying for you And are we holding on to a feeling With desperation Ohhh Don't know if you're right Don't know if you're wrong Seems to me we haven't danced long Don't make it hard (I won't) Don't make it easy (hold you) We'll just walk away (if you) At the end of the song (must go) Baby, Put one last nickel in the jukebox Give that love we once felt Just one final spin around 'Cause we're just Taxi Dancing Lost somewhere in a slow dance for two And the band that was playing Has finally stopped playing our favorite song And we're just dancing And the band that was playing Has finally stopped playing our favorite song Are we just Taxi Dancing You're paying for me and I'm paying for you And are we holding on to each other in desperation Taxi Dancing

Talk about life, imitating art Well I was sure that I heard the Director yell, "Take it from the start" And I could feel my body crushing yours Camera dollied into place Your husband's in the front row, I couldn't look him in the face Part of the pleasure was that it felt so wrong But it grew too fast, too strong Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? They're blaming it all on me I'm blaming it all on love Well don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? Just a little sexual tension Under the guise of love Young and tragic, I really felt the part While we were sweating and screaming tearin' out his heart Well I was sure I heard the wind and the wires Crying in sympathy For star-crossed lovers, Ally that ain't you or me Part of the pleasure was that it felt so wrong But it grew too fast, too strong Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? They're blaming it all on me I'm blaming it all on love Well don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? Just a little sexual tension Under the guise of love For a limited run in to your local bedroom We knew the curtain would be coming down soon Reviews were mixed, the press was unkind Ally I hope they will forgive us in time, in time Part of the attraction was that we knew it couldn't last So we closed our eyes and held on Don't you thing your friends are talking Alyson? Who were we trying to fool? What was I thinking of? Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? They're blaming it all on me I'm blaming it all on love Well don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? Just a little sexual tension Under the guise of love

Been burned and with both feet on the ground I've learned that it's painful comin' down No use runnin' away And there's no time left to stay Now I'm finding out that it's so confusin' No time left and I know I'm losin' Flashed and I think I'm fallin' down Crashed and my ears can't hear a sound No use runnin' away And there's no time left to stay Now I'm finding out that it's so confusin' No time left and I know I'm losin' Now I'm finding out that it's so confusin' No time left and I know I'm losin' Burned and with both feet on the ground I've learned that it's painful comin' down No use runnin' away And there's no time left to stay Now I'm finding out that it's so confusin' No time left and I know I'm losin'
