"Tongue-Tied" lyrics

"Tongue-Tied"

Are you awake?
Are you alone?
Is it too late?
I'll never know

I want to talk to you but I'm tongue-tied
All the words are trapped in my mouth
I get a grip, I swallow my pride
I take a deep breath and nothing comes out
I try to talk to you but I'm tongue-tied
I know the words I need you to hear
Line by line, they run through my mind
Then right when it counts, they all disappear

I'm too proud to open up
We're cowards then, the both of us
Good thing I've learnt to love
People in silence
I know the words to write
But fuck it, never mind
I'll keep it all inside
I do it all the time

I want to talk to you but I'm tongue-tied
All the words are trapped in my mouth
I get a grip, I swallow my pride
I take a deep breath and nothing comes out
I try to talk to you but I'm tongue-tied
I know the words I need you to hear
Line by line, they run through my mind
Then right when it counts, they all disappear

I still want to fuck you like I love you, maybe I do
I still feel the agony each time I think about you
I still want to fuck you like I love you, maybe I do
I still feel the agony each time I think about you

I want to talk to you but I'm tongue-tied
All the words are trapped in my mouth
I get grip, I swallow my pride
I take a deep breath and nothing comes out
I try to talk to you but I'm tongue-tied
I know the words I need you to hear
Line by line, they run through my mind
Then right when it counts, they all disappear

I never grow, I just regress
I never change, I just forget
So loneliness is what I get
I just regret, I just regret

I never grow, I just regress
I never change, I just forget
So loneliness is what I get
I just regret, I just regret

I never grow, I just regress
I never change, I just forget
So loneliness is what I get
I just regret, I just regret

I never grow, I just regress
I never change, I just forget
So loneliness is what I get
I just regret, I just regret
