I've never weighed my wording
Does the sentence match the crime?
Choking on what I've spoken suffocating
You never cared for counting
But mistakes are a score you'll keep
Keep enemies close and your lover closer
A word, a word is all that's needed
To turn a tide, to change a season
I never wage a war
I cannot forsee a victory
So how did I win yet still seem to surrender?
You never follow fashion
When you follow my advice
Shoot or be shot's the reason you're the victim
A word, a word is all that's needed
To turn a tide, to change a season
Standing on what's unspoken
I am left alone and high
Upon a pedestal intent on falling
Clinging to what I've broken
Breaking the things I try to mend
Sow what you say and reap what you regret
A word, a word is all that's needed
To turn a tide, to change a season
