Switchfoot - The Sound Of My Mouth lyrics

rate me

I am the crook who robs me

I am my own adversary

I am my enemy

I am my enemy

And my mouth is an army

And when the night falls on me

I become anything but free

I get so sick of this

It gets ridiculous

My mouth is an army

The sound in my mouth

It gets so loud

It gets so loud

Little words can't slip out

Words like sorry

And I'm so sorry

I am the tyrant of discourse

I am the beater of the dead horse

I am the irritant

I am the irritant

And my mouth is a brute force

Here we are in another night

Gearing up for a social accident

With a pick pot, I pick sides, I pick fights

My mouth is an army

The sound in my mouth

It gets so loud

It gets so loud

The little words can't slip out

Words like sorry

The sound in my mouth

It gets so loud

It gets so loud

Little words can't slip out

Words like sorry

And I'm so sorry

Where would you find yourself

Without love?

Give her off to someone else

'Cause that ain't love

If love is to find yourself

Are you finding love?

Or are you picking sides?

The sound in my mouth

Gets so loud

Gets so loud

It gets so loud

So loud

So loud

Gets so loud

The sound in my mouth

It gets so loud

It gets so loud

The little words can't slip out

Words like sorry

And I'm so sorry
