A split tongue with bitter words.
A new meaning to this thing called life.
I'm looking in, reaching out.
But this time, the silence is golden.
I used to scream out her name,
Now, I slur words of spite.
I used to be crawling in my own skin,
Searching for a way out.
But, I've grown used to the way it feels,
To wear a suit that's two sizes too big.
Tailored to fit what I once thought I knew.
But I've abandoned all I knew, before this era.
I've said my prayers,
And marked the cross, across my chest.
Forgive me, Father...
I've found a way to let the words flow,
And the actions quickly follow suit.
I've turned this into a sin,
But you're the one living in regret.
It's time to wipe this taste off of my lips.
The weight has finally been lifted,
After all of these years...
