Pulling Tightly Lyrics

(Leon wrote this for his old band MyRenascent)

VERSE 1:
stand up straight and work for me
you're not quite how you used to be
you're shield is wrecked
you're such a mess
your case appears all out of place
i cannot grasp you all that well
i need a clip to sit you still
you lead me to a better place
and turn me up.. its such a waste

CHORUS:
where everything comes together
dont put in and not put out
shield me well and if ur subtle
ill crank this volume, hear me shout
dont pull me by a thread

VERSE 2:
loud and soft and off and on
just like a switch til this light's blown
and now re-wiring must be done
to fix up all the mess you've hung..
and if it isn't fixed
then everything will tear and split
and you know that i wont accept that
..not from now

CHORUS:
where everything comes together
dont put in and not put out
shield me well and if ur subtle
ill crank this volume, hear me shout
dont pull me by a thread
(whispered)dont pull me by a thread

BRIDGE: vocal line repeated either 4 or 8 times
pulling tightly
(plug me in, turn on the mic, im going to give you quite a fright)


CHORUS:
where everything comes together
dont put in and not put out
shield me well and if ur subtle
ill crank this volume, hear me shout

(key change)
where everything comes together
dont put in and not put out
shield me well and if ur subtle
ill crank this volume, hear me shout
don't pull me by a thread
