Bite My Tongue

bite my tongue
from far away
I can't feel the words you say
they drift on
in and out of my world
and stupid me
I can't relate
do I love or care or hate?
are you my friend,
are you the end
or just a girl?

you're still here
I can't believe
my life has not moved on
out of fear
or even knowing with you
something could go wrong
I guess I can't replace
the poetry from off your face
it speaks to me like
I'm the only one

bite my tongue
from far away
it's a game we shouldn't play
and I know
someone's bound to get hurt
but that's you
your spirit's free
you would take that chance on me
and I guess you don't mind
playing in the dirt

I am the only one
