I've sewn my lips together, love  With shiny golden thread  You'll never hear my voice again  I might as well be dead I've tied my arms together, dear With chains of stainless steel  I'll never call your phone again  My touch you'll never feel I've locked me in a prison cell  Inside a cold, dark cave I pray to God to care for you  Your life's not mine to save I've cut my tongue and vocal chords  I scream but make no sound I pray to God to care for you While I won't be around  I promised not to burden you  And killed me cause i had to  "your life was just another breath, The Earth still spun without you" I sensed you didn't love me, dear I could have shown affection  My faith and pride still held me back God, how I fear rejection I sensed you didn't love me, love I wish I would have told you "I've wasted over half my life on trying to unlove you"
