Hold Your Tongue - Frank Turner

You’ve been pretty since the day that you were born

So the roots of your beautiful hair

Drew all the water that your body could hold

So when your soul needed water, no water was there

You shed words like so much dead skin

They gather up like dust against walls

They kick up when someone comes in

So when they’re looking for something they find nothing at all

Hold your goddamn tongue

You forget yourself

How could I be the one

If you’re wrapped 'round someone else?

And I really don’t know which feels worse

To be a fool or be with a liar

I just know that heart once soaked and cursed

Is that much harder to set on fire

And I won’t let this die

Until I’ve seen you cry

A single tear to show

There’s water in your soul
