Eating My Words

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
 ♪
 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, 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
 ♪
 The 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
 So 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

 I can't seem to keep it down
 ♪
 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
 ♪
 So 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
