Blood on the Ground

Lyrics

I don't want to talk to you anymore
 I'm afraid of what I might say
 I bite my tongue everytime you come around
 Cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground
 ♪
 Hand over my heart I swear I've tried everything I could
 Within all my power two weeks and one hour
 I slaved and now I've got nothing to show
 Oh if only you'd grow taller than a brick wall
 From now on I'm gonna start holding my breath
 When you come around and you flex that fake grin
 Cause something inside of me has said more than twice
 That breathing less air beats breathing you in
 I don't want to talk to you anymore
 I'm afraid of what I might say
 I bite my tongue everytime you come around
 Cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground
 
 Hand over my mouth I'm earning the right to my silence
 In quiet discerning between ego and timing
 Good judgement is once again proving to me that it's
 Still worth it's weight in gold
 So from now on I'm gonna be so much more wary
 When you start to speak and my warm blood starts to boil
 That seeing you is like pulling teeth
 And hearing your voice is like chewing tin foil
 ♪
 I don't want to talk to you anymore
 I'm afraid of what I might say
 I bite my tongue everytime you come around
 Cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground
 ♪
 High fives to a better judgement
 ♪
 By saying less today, I will gain more
 Low twos to you my fickle friend
 ♪
 Who brought the art of silent war
 I don't want to talk to you anymore
 I'm afraid of what I might say
 I bite my tongue everytime you come around
 Cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground
 
 I don't want to talk to you anymore
 I'm afraid of what I might say
 I bite my tongue everytime you come around
 Cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground
 ♪
 Hand over my heart I swear I've tried everything I could
 Within all my power two weeks and one hour
 I slaved and now I've got nothing to show
 Oh if only you'd grow taller than a brick wall
 From now on I'm gonna start holding my breath
 When you come around and you flex that fake grin
 Cause something inside of me has said more than twice
 That breathing less air beats breathing you in
 I don't want to talk to you anymore
 I'm afraid of what I might say
 I bite my tongue everytime you come around
 Cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground
 
 Hand over my mouth I'm earning the right to my silence
 In quiet discerning between ego and timing
 Good judgement is once again proving to me that it's
 Still worth it's weight in gold
 So from now on I'm gonna be so much more wary
 When you start to speak and my warm blood starts to boil
