Sometimes I let my guard down






And just have a good time








I say whatever I want too









I laugh, I shout, I whine



























I simply say what I think









And do not care who knows





My thoughts spill out and float away
Until my mouth snaps closed

























That’s when I take it back








Suck it in
Erase those words
Like it never happened

Sometimes I say things that I shouldn’t
That no one needs to hear
Things that bring nothing good
And fills me with fear

At times I lose my temper
And let it all pour out
Every bad thing I ever said
Every curse, every cry, every doubt

Then I take it back
Suck it in
Erase those words
It never happened

When moments like this
Catch me off guard
And my thoughts fly around
Before they fall like stones to the ground

It’s right then, for just a moment
I feel a kind of relief
Until I realize what I said
And then it’s all just grief

So I take it back
Suck it in
Erase those words
But it still happened
