Lyrics

ONLY THINGS YOU SAY…THEY GET IN THE WAY
ONLY THINGS YOU SAY…THEY GET IN THE WAY

WELL I KNOW YOU DON’T MEAN ANY HARM
I KNOW IT’S JUST YOUR WAY
THE NEXT THING THE SONG THE NEXT WORD YOU WANNA SAY
SPEWING WITH PASSION YOUR LIPS BLEED COLD
FROM SPEAKING WASTED WORDS THAT NEVER GET OLD
AND YOU THINK YOU HARBOR SECRETS THAT NO ONE EVEN SEES
BUT YOU WEAR THEM ON YOUR PERFUME THAT GETS STRONGER WHEN YOU BLEED
AND YOU’D RATHER BE A MYSTERY THAN EVER SPEAK THE TRUTH
AND THROW AWAY THAT APPLE THAT RIPS OUT EVERY TOOTH

(CH)
ONLY THINGS YOU SAY…THEY GET IN THE WAY
ONLY THINGS YOU SAY…THEY GET IN THE WAY

WELL YOU’D RATHER BE A MYSTERY THAN EVER SPEAK THE TRUTH
OR THROW AWAY THAT RED LACE THAT WRAPS AROUND YOUR SUIT
THERE’S NO ALTERCATION WHEN ALL YOU SEE IS GREY
NO SALVATION NO REDEMPTION IN SOMEONE ELSES CAVE

OH WORDS THAT MAKE YOU HATE
AND WORDS THAT MAKE YOU CRY
WORDS THAT MAKE YOU CRAWL UP IN A CORNER AND ASK WHY

WORDS THAT MAKE YOU HEAL
AND WORDS THAT MKAE YOU HEAR
AND WORDS THAT MAKE YOU WISH THAT YOU WERE SOMEONE ELSE'S FEAR

WORDS THAT MAKE YOU HARD
AND WORDS THAT MAKE YOU SING
WORDS THAT MAKE YOU WANT TO FORGET EVERY GOD DAMN THING

OH WORDS...

ONLY THINGS YOU SAY…THEY GET IN THE WAY
ONLY THINGS YOU SAY…THEY GET IN THE WAY
