Bite Your Tongue

Such an annoying conversation
I'm sorry but I'm tired of trying
To be some picture of compassion
And anyway it sounds like I'm lying.
Yes, I've heard the world has conspired
To steal away your God-given right
To happy home and comfortable children
Next you'll sue them for abandoning you

So bite your tongue!
You're not the only one
Who's been let-down.
Bite your tongue!
Maybe it's good for you
To hit the ground.

Oh Christ it's gonna sound like I'm agreeing
With the most ultra boring ideas
Of pop-psychological western gurus
Who haven't gotten lucky in years
So you see I have no intention
Of giving you the easy way out
And yes I'll smile as I burn
The self-help section of my local bookstore.

So bite your tongue!
You're not the only one
Who's been let-down.
Bite your tongue!
Maybe it's good for you
To hit the ground.

Blame the shapes and blame the angles.
Blame it on your own dark place.
And if you blame on something other...
The victim song remains, remains.

So bite your tongue,
You're not the only one
Who's been let-down.
Bite your tongue!
Maybe it's good for you
To hit the ground.


No more emos. No more. *stabs* I'm ok. God grant me patience. Duncan Sheik remains ever my hero.
