Louder Than Words - Amy Spanger Clayton Craddock Conrad Adderley Jerry Dixon Matt Beck Ral Esparza Stephen Oremus

Why do we play with fire

Why do we run our finger through the flame

Why do we leave our hand on the stove

Although we know we're in for some pain

Oh why do we refuse to hang a light

When the streets are dangerous

Why does it take an accident

Before the truth gets through to us

Cages or wings

Which do you prefer

Ask the birds

Fear or love baby

Don't say the answer

Actions speak louder than words

Why should we try to be our best

When we can just get by and still gain

Why do we nod our heads

Although we know

The boss is wrong as rain

Why should we blaze a trail

When the well worn path seems safe and

So inviting

How as we travel can we

See the dismay

And keep from fighting

Cages or wings

Which do you prefer

Ask the birds

Fear or love baby

Don't say the answer

Actions speak louder than words

Louder than louder than

What does it take

To wake up a generation

How can you make someone

Take off and fly

If we don't wake up

And shake up the nation

We'll eat the dust of the world

Wondering why

Why do we stay with lovers

Who we know down deep

Just aren't right

Why would we rather

Put ourselves through hell

Than sleep alone at night

Why do we follow leaders who never lead

Why does it take catastrophe

To start a revolution

If we're so free tell me why

Someone tell me why

So many people bleed

Cages or wings

Which do you prefer

Ask the birds

Fear or love baby

Don't say the answer

Actions speak louder than

Louder than louder than

Louder than louder than

Cages or wings

Which do you prefer

Ask the birds

Fear or love baby

Don't say the answer

Actions speak louder than

Louder than louder than ooh

They speak louder

Louder than louder than aah

Actions speak louder than
