SOAK

Wring my neck if I’m breathing 

Modestly so conceited

Time flies through the air

Who are you again?

 

Take my head I don’t need it

Hold my tongue ‘fore I eat it 

Reflections breathe contempt

Your eyes lay me bare

 

And I’ll soak up everything even just the little words that spill

How stupid of me to think that we could have been anything

And I’ll soak up everything even just the way you look at me 

 

I, I am on my own

But I, can’t be alone 

 

Chew my thoughts and repeat it

Talk until I believe them

Take it to the edge 

Caught up in your web

 

So take my mind I don’t need it 

Bite my tongue til it’s bleeding 

Reflections breathe your air

Your pain’s mine again

 

And I’ll soak up everything even just the little words that spill

How stupid of me to think that we could have been anything

And I’ll soak up everything even just the way you look at me 

 

I, I am on my own
But I, can’t be alone 

​

Said oh shut up please stop me from opening 

This mouth of mine cause I don't know a thing

Start to put up a wall, stop opening 

Oh myself up to anyone or anything 

​

I said oh shut up please stop me from opening 

Oh this mouth of mine cause I don’t know a thing
