Why does my tongue
Hurt and burn at the tip
Cause the words laid on thick
Pink bumps swell to come out
There are some things
I will never say to you
That i will always want to
But i let them blister on my lip
I swallow letters
And as the acid tears
Apart the phrases i
Chose to never say,
I bite my tongue till
The words are painted red

Why does my tongue
Hurt and burn at the tip
Cause the words laid on thick
Pink bumps swell to come out
There are some things
I will never say to you
That i will always want to
But i let them blister on my lip
I swallow letters
And as the acid tears
Apart the phrases i
Chose to never say,
I bite my tongue till
The words are painted red
