Disrespect isn’t a language I speak anymore But it’s the language we used to adore Only with you was I able to miscommunicate Only with you were my opinions misconstrued
Disrespect isn’t a language I speak anymore My memory of it is rusty I can barely remember the grammar It was intricate and had a specific structure My boundaries were always compromised After every time I’d let you lie
Disrespect isn’t a language I speak anymore My tongue can barely roll the r’s My voice can no longer shout the insults And my mind has forgotten how to manipulate as a result
Disrespect isn’t a language I speak anymore So, when we saw each other unexpectedly When used one of its idioms I could no longer recognize it I no longer am fluent in it
