These words are from my tongue and lips

And I don't have control over this

Can you see that this just won't work?

You're hanging from my fingertips

And I can feel you start to slip

I know this is what you want

Writing it out again

(Writing it out again)

Writing it out again

Face the words that hurt you

'Cause I won't be there

Turn around and pick up your hat

I'm so scared of what to do

Calm because I'll be alone

I never wanted to be afraid

Now I'm listening

Barely breathing

Still wide awake from my dreams

Now you know I was the definite boy

This will be alright

Face the words that hurt you

'Cause I won't be there

Turn around and pick up your hat

I'm so scared of what to do

Calm because I'll be alone

I never wanted to be afraid

Tell me, oh why, once again

(Time again)

Words I don't comprehend

(This time)

I will be alright

I'm telling, oh why

(Time again)

Words I don't comprehend

(This time)

It will be alright

Telling, oh why

(This time again)

Words I don't comprehend

Be all right

Face the words that hurt you

'Cause I won't be there

Turn around and pick up your hat

I'm so scared of what to do

Calm because I'll be alone

I never wanted to be afraid

Oh why, once again

Words I don't comprehend

Be all right
