lyrics

"Under My Tongue"

Take me away until I have been saved
Am I not worth saving?
Sing me a song, but don't take too long
Please just don't keep me waiting

Look into the fire tell me what you see
Gravitate to Hell, gravitate to me
If it's really there show it all to me
Give me quite a scare, give it all to me

All of those folks that you used to know
They don't know you anymore
They all have friends that they can't stand
And dress like it's 1974

Say you got a problem? Say there's nothing left?
Take another pill! Shove it in your chest!
Tell you where to go, tell you who to be
Show you how to live, show you how to bleed

A long time ago I wrote you a note
And I buried it under my tongue
Now when I speak, my tongue in my cheek
It reminds me of when I was young

Gonna take it, take it all and watch it burn...

When I was alone, you wrote me a note
And you buried it under my tongue
So now when I sing I lie through my teeth
And nothing I say is enough
