My words are sharp

Like some diamonds

Too much pressure and they′ll cut into your liningI swear it will hurt

With every single word

The things I think-I-think-I′m—

From saying what I want

And I promised I would stop and think it through

But I'm a flake, you really should′ve knew

I'm stuck holding back my tongue

From saying what I want, ah-ah
