Tippy Toe 02:31
I tippy tippy toe my way into your heart So quiet you don't even know I'm there But I swear You'll realize once I'm gone Like a 'frigerator running you didn't even know it was on Till it was off Oh, next I sneak my way all around your brain But I'm careful not to move a thing And you think its sweet That I'm discreet And I never run into any other girls but me Which is good, Cause I would beat them up Oh Oh Oh next I work my way to your sense of touch And I find it don't require much To make you want me all the time Just a playful brush up against your thigh And you were mine I tippy tippy toe my way into your heart So quiet you don't even know I'm there But I swear You'll realize once I'm --

Kindly remove from the list Of things you think you know about me I am not sensitive, in fact I’m quite cold And I am not interesting And why do you have to be mean So mean? Kindly remove that chip from your shoulder Its only weighing you down You don’t deserve to know me when I’m older It simply should not be allowed Why don’t you just go away? You stay Kindly take back that one thing that you said It felt like a million cuts on me Wounds always heal but scars remain As proof of mistakes that we’ve made How did I not walk away? I stayed Kindly remove from the list Of things you think you know about me I am not sensitive and I am not bold And I am not yours so I’m free

It's A Lie 04:33
Stop me here stop me now My skin is covered up with doubt I’ll wring my heart till it’s all dried out You never hurt me so you claimed You’d hold onto my heart always You wouldn’t drop it so it couldn’t break It’s a lie, it’s a lie, it’s a lie But I believe you honey anyway It’s a lie, lie, lie, lie But I like all the nice things that you say Things were good they were okay But I fucked it all up anyway Cause honestly that’s what I do And I can’t show my face you see Because people expect more from me And I find it hard to measure up But I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive Though I can’t bear to keep it up this way I’m alive, I’m alive But I’m gonna need more love than yesterday I'm alright, I’m alright I’ll snap out of it I always do I’m alright, I’m alright And I can’t wait to smile again at you

Lite-Brite 04:11
I have a lite brite, It’s in my apartment I got it for my 24th birthday because I always wanted one I always always wanted one And now that I have one it seems kind of lame Even for a child’s game The pegs get everywhere, the patterns are of paper You must puncture the paper and you can’t reuse the paper It doesn’t have the magic I thought it would So I’m hoping you are much like my lite brite A big disappointment then I won’t have to waste my time Thinking thoughts of you Or maybe you’re like cable I never had that either No I never had that either ‘til I moved out on my own Better than expected, I think I am addicted To Keith and Rachel on MSNBC Stacey tells me what not to wear on TLC And in addition without my permission Don’t tell a soul I watch The Hills on MTV (hate spencer love LC) So maybe you’re like cable Better than expected and I would be addicted to Changing all your channels And I like you best when you’re on demand Or maybe you’re like Nintendo This is my last scenario I never had that either you can see I was quite deprived as a child I’d go over my friend’s house I’d play it at my friend’s house But I would always get out I’d always lose my lives Too many buttons, too much going on I’d lose my head Then I’d give someone else a try So maybe you’re like Nintendo Really really awesome and every so often I could come and play your game But in the end we’d we, we both we both we both would see You’re much too complex for a simple girl like me Like the lite brite I hope you will be

about

Debbie Miller Seattle, Washington

Seattle songwriter Debbie Miller is like a tantalizing book of short stories. There are few musicians who work as diligently as she to be as narratively engaging. Her lyrics, like tightrope walkers, rollick on the taught wire of song, guiltlessly and pointedly inspiring listeners who crave more of their spectacle. Miller has played prominent Northwest festivals like Timbrrr! and Upstream. ... more
