Eating My Words

[Intro] Stop putting words in my mouth They taste better when they’re coming out Still I can’t help but choke them down when you’re around but I can’t seem to keep it down [Verse 1] Don’t let it go to your head I’m not here for my health If I was then I’d be dead Instead I’m testing my patience waiting around for you to be gracious I’ll never let go [Chorus] Don’t be afraid I’m on the front lines to fight for you Stop putting words in my mouth They taste better when they’re coming out Still I can’t help but choke them down when you’re around but I can’t seem to keep it down [Verse 2] Last time I said goodbye I thought my good years were washed up; Hung out to dry With the mindset that everything was fine but then I realized That it was right in front of my eyes [Chorus] [Bridge] Everyday I’m smashed and ripped and torn to bits that never fit the mold But I recognize the way that I was never really whole [Chorus]
