Words fall out of my mouth
they drift to the ground and they don't make a sound
I'll try to assemble them back to the place in my head where I fear that I lack
The proper speech that I need to narrate the scene to tie up these things
The proper place for my thoughts
I know that I'm not I know that I'm not
So clear and transparent I'll try but I can't promise it
So dark but delicate
But I'm rough around the edges and
You can try to smooth me down but I'm not, no I'm not
You can try to smooth me down but I'm not ready to forget
You can try to smooth me down but I'm not, no I'm not
You can try to smooth me down but I'm not ready to forget
(You can try to smooth me)
x2
I'm not ready to forget
Take back all that I said
I've said it before and I'll say it again
It's not like me to pretend but the best part of me is the worst I can get
But you make me so tired to fight
I try to reply but I'm shaking inside
You gave me a tongue just to tie
I'll swallow my pride if you swear not to lie
Hard to breathe and hard to speak to
But don't take my word
Because I'm honestly so bored of being misunderstood
I'm not
So clear and transparent
I'll try but I can't promise it
So dark but delicate
But I'm rough around the edges and
You can try to smooth me down but I'm not, no I'm not
You can try to smooth me down but I'm not ready to forget
