The Tyne

Sewn Shut

I should keep my mouth sewn shut
Keep my mouth sewn shut
Sewn shut
Keep my mouth sewn shut

Save your tears
It’s not about you
I'm facing my fears
They’re not designed to hurt you
I can’t sit in silence
So I just say things I don’t mean
My tongue moves faster than my thoughts
I'm ruining the whole thing
Like a plane without a pilot
Crashing down into the sea
I'm spiralling out of control

I should keep my mouth sewn shut
Keep my mouth sewn shut
Cause every time I open it
I fuck things up
Keep my mouth sewn shut
Keep my mouth sewn shut
Cause every time I open it
I fuck things up
I should keep my mouth sewn shut
Keep my mouth sewn shut
Sewn shut
Keep my mouth sewn shut

Take a minute
I’ll give you what you want
But my heart’s not in it
Saying how I feel always sparks animosity
Might as well go and get a lobotomy
Complicit in my silence
Nobody ever hears me
When my tongue moves faster than my thoughts
