Tongue Behind My Teeth

Lyrics

I know where you're going
 And I see where you've been
 Patience is a virtue
 And mine with you is wearing thin
 It's easy to sit and wait
 Speak with words you've stolen
 From better men than you
 Doors they helped you open
 In time will cease to let you through
 Is it easy to stand and sigh?
 
 Bid another friend goodbye
 Oh
 Oh
 Oh
 Oh, oh, oh
 ♪
 Lights can shine too bright, dear
 Nobody can see
 Hide safe behind your light, dear
 But understand it won't blind me
 And I know it would do no good,
 But I'd hurt you if I could
 Oh
 See my eyes
 Oh
 Open wide
 Oh
 Speak up now
 Oh
 Or hold your peace forever and be done
 Eyes down, door closed
 Keep quiet, growing old
 I know you, I see you
 Cling to, the road you ride on
 Homeless, more or less
 Skin and bone, on your own
 I'll be alright, I'm doing fine
 Keep my tongue behind my
 Teeth and, get gone
 You never were anyone
 Keep your words, keep your mind
 I'll keep my tongue behind my teeth
 Tongue behind my teeth
 And I know it would do no good,
 ♪
 But I'd hurt you if I could
 Oh
