tell me what to say


tell me what to say cause im mute
like a complex math problem i cant compute
the dispute
while understanding my parents refuse
so the fire i contain to reuse once i refuel
tell me what to say no matter if its true.

this is the end of the world
but yet everything going on im bored
so instead i went to the woods with a bat to fight and contort
with my personality the monster is where i resort to
cause its the only way i have control over what i dont do.

tell me what to say cause im lost
i went from the kid with nothing to loose at any cost
to having the fear of rising to far and falling
while she puts me on a pedestal with my walkman
i continue blind one foot at a time i keep walkin.

but i need you to tell me what to say
cause in my mind all the words are gone
and when they come back days
its all not that long.
