lyrics

Grey, grainy guilt beguiles genuine connection. Duct tape mouth — a stylish verbal contraceptive. This lockjaw lifestyle is taking a while to adjust two flat-lined lips; no smiles to expose the teeth I'm grinding to dust.

Please, tooth fairy come tonight. Sweep up my mistakes. Wipe my bloody mouth (foaming from the fight). I've lost. I've failed, but I'll make it right. Just give me time. I need some time.


Possess the process, practice, patience, and persevere. I want a Windex® window to set my sights far away from here. Escape through a shift in perspective. I'm electing a candidate who promised me a path to clear my fears.

But the nominees all lie, especially the golden guy. I've invested my trust in a stockbroker who broke his word saying I'd seize the sky. I forgot to invest in myself. I threw my lucky penny in a well. Foolish you. The only wishes come true are the dreams you put your mind's drive and hard work into.


Write what you want with a verbal font. Submit it to the suggestions box.


I don't wanna withhold my words anymore. From now on I'll speak my truth. I'm through with this dead bolted door.
