"...shut up girl and listen"

Mouth (Back to Discography)

I am just a word you say
Does it hurt your mouth
When you lie about my cause
When you’re the one who’s lost in this fictional vacant apology

And I will save you
Over and over again
When you can’t see beyond the hate
You’ve never seen better days here
What the hell are you thinking
We’ve all had it hard

Shut up girl
And take it
It’s yours to give
Shut up girl
And listen
You’re not as foolish as you look

Look, I am full of wonderful sayings
But all I could come up with
Is you a creep and you creep blow a kiss at my pain
You’re digging in the dark but you come out unscathed
I hope you’ve warmed up that throne
Cause the blood you carry is not your own

No remainders
Your oversight
And you can’t revive their shame
How do you feel now…knowing you could have spared me the same

Cut me down it’s fine, but dull your scissors please
Cause I will bleed like you
Even after the truth comes, you’ll find no, none, no relief

Shut up girl
And take it
It’s yours to give
Shut up girl
And listen
You’re not as foolish as you look

Look, I am full of wonderful sayings
But all I could come up with

Is you a creep and you creep blow a kiss at my pain
You’re digging in the dark but you come out unscathed
You’ve only warmed up that throne
Cause the blood you carry is not your own

You say you love your mother
You would kill for your daughter
But you take their young, you take their young and you bury their fathers
They’re not your children; they’re not your children…

Look, I am full of wonderful sayings
But all I could come up with

Shut up girl
And take it
It’s yours to give, you know
Shut up girl
And listen
You’re not as foolish as you look
It’s enough
