“Oh, he tells me tears are something to hide
And something to fear
And I try so hard to keep it inside
So no one can hear.”

Aimee Mann

"Voices Carry"
Song lyrics, Voices Carry (1985)
Context: I try so hard not to get upset
Because I know all the trouble Ill get
Oh, he tells me tears are something to hide
And something to fear
And I try so hard to keep it inside
So no one can hear.

“You lie so well
I could never even tell
what were facts in your artful rearranging”

“Tell me why I feel so bad, honey
Fighting left me plenty of money
But didn't keep the promise of memory lapses
Like a building that's been slated for blasting
I'm the proof that nothing is lasting
Counting to eleven as it collapses”

“I'll tell you a secret I don't even know.
Baby, there's something wrong with me
Baby, there's something wrong with me
Baby, there's something wrong with me
That I can't see.”

"King of the Jailhouse"
Song lyrics, The Forgotten Arm (2005)

“Everybody’s got their differences
too bad
here’s a circumstance in which the stakes are high
everybody’s got their secrets out
so sad
go around the room and see who doesn’t cry Soon enough
you’ll be free to write it off
you don’t know enough
to call a bluff
and the one who does
will never ever tell”

Aimee Mann

"Soon Enough" · Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkjIoIhNDVY Song lyrics, Charmer (2012)

“You can tell
By the laugh in the dark
at the sound of the bell
You can tell
It's the nucleus burning
inside of the cell…”

Aimee Mann

"Milwaukee" · YouTube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqSYzOXkthg Song lyrics, The Both (2014)

“You lie so well
I could never even tell
what were facts in your artful rearranging But I came back for more
and you laughed in my face and you rubbed it in
cause I’m a Labrador
and I run
when the gun
drops the dove again”
