Speak Your Mind

July came to me like an angel

And I warmed to her

I took to her like a handout

And so I wait for her

Like a check in the mail

And I slept with her in a dream last night

Well I was lying like a salesman

Down on that boulevard

She would barter for a tightrope

Like a discount spool of yarn

I been messing up

You've been resting

I guess I should get some sleep sometime

I been reaching in my bag

Joking like a cocaine hag

And you will always speak your mind

You were sleeping like a baby

After painting your decisions on the wall

I was weighing all your wishes in my head

Instead you caught me out there wandering the halls

I was sicker than a cancer

But you were pivotal in my recovery

Out the door you came

Knowing you would never stay

Knowing I could never ever leave

I been messing up

You've been resting

I guess I should get some sleep sometime

I been reaching in my bag

Joking like a cocaine hag

And you will always speak your mind

What you don't know

You don't know

What you don't know

You don't know

What you don't know

You don't know

I been messing up

You've been resting

I guess I should get some sleep sometime

I been reaching in my bag

Joking like a cocaine hag

And you will always speak your mind
