Broken Down Comunication

Scriptural Inspiration: Ecclesiastes 3:7, 1Peter 3:8, Proverbs 25:11, Proverbs 15:1 & Colossians 4:6

CHORUS:

Broken-down communication

Tangled lines causing confusion

Seems we've lost a good connection (Eph 4:26)

Cutting short our conversation (Prov 15:23)

Broken-down communication

Tangled lines causing confusion (2Cor 6:7)

We can't read minds so the solution

Is you've got to say what's on your mind (Col 4:6).

You've got to say what's on your mind (Eph 4:26)

If you do not, it would be a crime (Eph 4:27)

To bridle your tongue through the passage of time

It will ferment like a bitter wine (Prov 12:18)

And if there is no one in whom you confide (James 5:16)

The pressure will keep building up inside (Prov 15:1)

You better prepare for the rising tide (Prov 18:21)

From this explosion no man can hide (Ecc 9:17 & Eph 4:29)

(Chorus)

I used to be tight with them (Psalm 41:9)

But then me a fight with them (Psalm 41:7)

And quarrel all night with them (Psalm 35:1)

So things nah gone right with them

I used to be strong with them and sing out a song with them (Psalm 55:12-14)

But things them gone wrong with them, So mi nah go-long with them (Psalm 1:1)

I used to be right

And then I'd be wrong

Sometimes I'd be weak

Then times I'd be strong

So full of pride-And then knocked down (1Pet 5:5-6)

Why can't we all just get along?

Why can't we just get along?

(Chorus)

Well you've to tell me what is wrong (Prov 25:11)

I can't figure out why your face is so long

I know you hold in your feelings so strong

But please just tell me what's goin' on (Ecc 3:7)

Because miscommunication cause assumption and misinterpretation--you draw the wrong conclusion

So tell me if I'm truly your friend (Eph 4:26)

This guessing game has to end.

(Chorus)

Well you've got to say

You got to say

What's on your mind (Prov 15:1)

I used to be good with them (Psalm 55:12-13)

And eat up a food with them

But things them gone rude with them

Me fight the whole brood of them (Psalm 5:9)

I used to be cool with them

And sit in a school with them (Psalm 55:14)

But things them turn cruel With them

So me nah-go fool with them

I used to be right

And then I'd be wrong

Sometimes I'd be weak

Then times I'd be strong

So full of pride (1Peter 3:8)

And then knocked down (Eph 4:2)

Why can't we all just get along?

You've got to say

You got to say

What's on your mind (Ecc 3:7)
