If I Told You This Was Killing Me, Would You Stop?

watch your mouth
hold your tongue, boy
because you're running out of breath
running out of time
before every careless word that you utter
renders you utterly useless
now you're drowning in your own saliva
trying to speak yourself to the top of your hardcore world
well, keep on talking
just keep on rambling
you've got your mouth full

now listen, here's the pleasant part
you and i, we fell apart
now listen, here's the pleasant part
you and i, we fell apart

why can't you make up your mind?
why can't you make up your mind?

shut your mouth
burn your bridges

throw your words like an attack
stab me in the . . . wait a second
what's that i just heard?
never mind, it's obviously useless now

you're standing on your soapbox
yelling from the rooftops
everything you say is a lie
a lie, a lie lie lie, yeah

now listen, here's the clever one
who speaks before his thoughts are done
now listen, here's the clever one
who speaks before his thoughts are done

why can't you make up your mind?
why can't you make up your mind?

watch your mouth
hold your tongue
some things are better left unsaid
now i hope you're pleased
you let your pride stand tall
it danced within your words
right before your fall

why don't you
why don't you say that to my face?
i've had it ripped out, torn down
so many fakes
every thing you
every time you
every word you say

if i told you this was killing me
would you, would you stop?
