LJ Mercer - Chapstick Addiction

When you rise and fall, the tide it follows
Let the poison that you spit be the words that others swallow
And I don't know where I am
My fingers play all that they can
I keep it clean until my sleeve, and song so sweet I breathe I fan
I'll throw wood to flame
Do you still throw my name
Or the one I left behind, can't scrub it raw you're not surprised
"And I" is my favourite phrase
Hear it in my song again
Keep your small mind in your circle and I'll stick to where I'll stay
My lips are chapped but you know that it's unlike me
I've got to clean my act, I made a mess of what's behind me
I keep my fingers crossed and I knock the wood beside me
Guess I'm superstitious now since you ran me out of town
I always liked to spew my words, not break between my breathing
Though the things that I let slip aren't always what I'm feeling
But I'll write what you did till I feel like I am healed
Yeah I wish that I could tell you that I wish we never met
And I
Can't decide
If you deserve my forgiveness yeah I know that we were kids but
You didn't have to hurt me like you did
So I'll move on, you shouldn't put it past me
Or I'll try to at least but I won't resent you anymore
I don't need your permission to write about what happened
The way you hurt me left me speechless
And I've just now got my voice back
