Such an annoying conversation

I'm sorry but I'm tired of trying

To be some picture of compassion

...and anyway it sounds like I'm lying

...and yes I've heard the world has conspired

To steal away your god-given right

To a happy home and comfortable children

Next you'll sue them for abandoning you!!!



So bite your tongue

You're not the only one

Who's been let down

Bite your tongue

Maybe it's good for you

To hit the ground



Oh, christ...it's gonna sound like I'm agreeing

With the most ultra-boring ideas

Of pop psychological western gurus

Who haven't gotten lucky in years

...and so you see I have no intention

Of giving you the easy way out

Yes, I'll smile as I burn the self-help section

Of my local bookstore!!!



So bite your tongue

You're not the only one

Who's been let down

Bite your tongue

Maybe it'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 victim's song remains...

Remains...



So bite your tongue

You're not the only one

Who's been let down

Bite your tongue

Maybe it's good for you

To hit the ground
