Quiet Time

Gotta watch everything I say
Never know what will send someone off
I really try to behave
But sooner or later I toss...

One little crack just to cut into you
One little line just to smack you
One little dig at your soul
One little look to send you back to your hole

You try to call me on it
And spit back at me
And I feel like shit
And wonder why I'm lonely

Come to a point in the road
Go this way and stay out of trouble
Go that way and sink like a stone
We know which way I'll go, head for the rumble

They say restraint of pen and tongue
They say it's no business what others think you see
But sometimes that doesn't sound like much fun
Shouldn't it work the other way too for me
