Must I wake again To face your firing squad The mind's best of intentions The heart forgot Your tongue is a trigger Lips a revolver Words like bullets pierce the skin Of my belief each time you speak Riddle my trust with cacophony I can't hear you cause my ears are ringing I can't hear you til your steps can mean it All you say has proven fleeting I can't hear you til your heart can beat it Convince my innocence Of what you're not But no more can I bear This same, tired facade Your tongue is a trigger Lips a revolver Smoking gun can't hide the truth As words repeat, you're cutting deep Litter my hope with hypocrisy I can't hear you cause my ears are ringing I can't hear you when my trust is bleeding All this time and you can't see it Louder doesn't mean worth believing Speak the truth, subtract the love Kill me quicker than a lie ever could Ever, ever could I can't hear you cause my ears are ringing I can't hear you til your heart can beat it I can't hear you
