These Lips
So you want to know what I’m thinking
As I sit in this corner on a sunny day
But these lips are sealed so why bother
It’s for the protection of you and not me
These lips are poison not for you but me
They sure can tell a tale, with a smile or a frown
Building and breaking this soul of mine
There’s no need to share these thoughts of mine
These evil serpents that bind me to my fears
So don’t try to save me as I sit here with a smile on this sunny day
I’m fine can’t you see, a sliver of shine trickles down
So let me continue and keep these lips sealed
