Letra Bite my tongue de Relient K

I was gonna spell it out
In detail but
I dropped the call
Before I spilled my guts
The floor stayed clean
Like my conscience would be
Cuz if you heard anything
You didn´t hear it from me

I´m sweeping up the seconds
That tick off the clock
Save them all for later
When I´m too ticked to talk
And I need some time
To search my mind
To locate the words
That seem so hard to find

And sometimes I say things that
I wish that I could take back
The most crucial thing in life is
The thing called tact
And if your hour´s so intently listening
Then the smartest thing to say
Is to tell myself not to say a thing

Yeah I gotta keep quiet quiet
Don´t let it all come undone
Cuz if I dare open my mouth
It´ll just be to bite my tongue
To bit my tongue

I said I´m always close-minded
With an open mouth
And the worst of me
Seems to come right out
But I´ve never broken bones
With a stone or a stick
But I´ve conjured up a phrase
That can cut to the quick

And sometimes I say things that
I wish that I could take back
And the smartest thing to say
Is to tell myself to keep

Quiet quiet
Don´t let it all come undone
Cuz if I dare open my mouth
It´ll just be to bite my tongue
Yeah I gotta keep quiet quiet
Listen to your voice
Because the power of your words
Can repair all that I destroyed

And when I finally do
Let it come from you
The peace of understanding grips my soul
The reason I
Have meaning in this life
Is so I swallow all my pride
And give you control
I give it all to you

And I gotta keep quiet quiet
Don´t let it all come undone
Cuz if I dare open my mouth
It´ll just be to bite my tongue
I gotta keep quiet quiet
Listen to your voice
Because the power of your words
Can repair all that I destroyed
And I gotta keep quiet quiet
Don´t let it all come undone
Cuz if I dare open my mouth
It´ll just be to bite my tongue
Bite my tongue
