Holding My Tongue Is Radically Different Than Holding Hands...
i've been holding my tongue for far too longi think it's been years since i've stood up for myself
you think you have influence on me?
fuck that, you've always kicked me when i was down
so where do you want to go from here?
six feet under sounds good to me
if that's not good enough
get the fuck out of my way
take a look around
everyone has turned their back on you
out of your reach
you've lost all control
spoken:
and to be completely honest, i couldn't be happier
sung:
so where do you want to go from here?
far away from me sounds good to me
if that's not good enough
just keep away from me
i've been holding my tongue long enough
i'm at the point where i'm biting
and the blood is seeping through my teeth
i can't hold back anymore!
i think it's been years since i've stood up for myself
when the fuck have you stood for anything?
you're just a hollow skeleton who needs control to thrive
that's not how humans survive!
so where do you want to go from here?
six feet under, just far away's good for me
if that's not good enough
spoken:
choke it up and fucking deal with it
(potential to go on a rant, maybe something like)
you held me back all those years
even going so far as to kick me when i was down
you saw that i was drowning
so why didn't you offer me your fucking hand?
you just added weights to the anchor
oh, you say you did? i don't remember your hands even entering the water
you never understood me, but i give you credit for trying
so just please, shut the fuck up and get the hell out of my life forever
