"swallow" lyrics

If you've got nothing nice to say then don't say a word
And even if you have sometimes it's still better just to say nothing at all
Dead air is a privilege and I for one wanna bask in this golden silence with zero interference

So hold your tongue before I bite it out
Red hand covering your mouth
With stony silence, yeah we have been blessed but
You couldn't wait to get it off your chest

You got me begging for forgiveness
But now I know not all that glitters is gold
You think you're hanging with Jesus
Don't make me say it again
Swallow
Swallow

Throw a stone and see
Where it lands
Casting shadows on
Where you stand

So hold your tongue before I bite it out
Red hand covering your mouth and
Your good intentions turning into shame
And now you've only got yourself to blame

You got me begging for forgiveness
But now I know not all that glitters is gold
You think you're hanging with Jesus
Don't make me say it again
Don't make me say it again
I'm telling you as a friend
I hope you know
Not all that glitters is gold
But you don't have to believe us
No, you don't have to believe us

Ill wind is blowing from your baited breath
A hollow point into a certain death of
Your good intentions turning into shame
And now you've only got yourself to blame

You got me begging for forgiveness
But now I know not all that glitters is gold
You think you're hanging with Jesus
Don't make me say it again
Don't make me say it again
I'm telling you as a friend
I hope you know
Not all that glitters is gold
But you don't have to believe us

Not all that glitters is gold
But you don't have to believe us
Don't make me tell you again
Swallow
Swallow
