Lockjaw

Talinor

Why is speaking out like pulling teeth from my mouth?
The devil's got my tongue
They're bringing out the pitchforks
Singing out a lockjaw chorus, a lockjaw song

Words throw up, but I choke them down
Spoke too soon, and I'm losing the crowd
Jaw shut tight, and tongue I'm biting over and over again
No chill, when I say what I say
Low-key, like a brick to the face
Oversharing, overbearing, underperforming at best

I'm not ever gonna open my mouth again
No, no, no
I'm not ever gonna open my mouth again

Why does keeping it down feel like I'm pacing a cage?
Foaming at the mouth
Picking a lock on the muzzle I got, to keep me locked in a cycle
And desperate to change

Now words throw up, but I choke them down
Spoke too soon, and I'm losing the crowd
Jaw shut tight, and tongue I'm biting over and over again
No chill, when I say what I say
Low-key, like a brick to the face
Oversharing, overbearing, underperforming mess

I'm not ever gonna open my mouth again
No, no, no
I'm not ever gonna open my mouth again
No, no, no
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
I'm not ever gonna open my mouth again

I'm not ever gonna open my mouth again
No, no, no
I'm not ever gonna open my mouth again
No, no, no
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
