Bite Your Tongue

Such an annoying conversation
Iâ??m sorry but Iâ??m tired of trying
To be some picture of compassion
...and anyway it sounds like Iâ??m lying
...and yes Iâ??ve heard the world has conspired
To steal away your god-given right
To a happy home and comfortable children
Next youâ??ll sue them for abandoning you!!!

So bite your tongue
Youâ??re not the only one
Whoâ??s been let down
Bite your tongue
Maybe itâ??s good for you
To hit the ground

Oh, christ...itâ??s gonna sound like Iâ??m agreeing
With the most ultra-boring ideas
Of pop psychological western gurus
Who havenâ??t gotten lucky in years
...and so you see I have no intention
Of giving you the easy way out
Yes, Iâ??ll smile as I burn the self-help section
Of my local bookstore!!!

So bite your tongue
Youâ??re not the only one
Whoâ??s been let down
Bite your tongue
Maybe itâ??s good for you
To hit the ground

Blame the shapes and blame the angles
Blame it on your own dark planes
If you blame on something other...
The victimâ??s song remains...
Remains...

So bite your tongue
Youâ??re not the only one
Whoâ??s been let down
Bite your tongue
Maybe itâ??s good for you
To hit the ground
