Verve Pipe, The – Only Words

Written by Brian Vander Ark

Through evidence of circumstance

You held me to a second chance

Feigning interest so sincere

Curse the days I’ve wasted here

All the words that you waste debating

Every word so intimidating

I can let a lot of things that you say go

I could never let another day go

All the words that evaporated

Every word so intimidating

I’ll never make mention of it if you say so

But I could never let another day go by

Definitions you have missed

Punctuated by your fist

Feigning interest out of fear

I curse the days I’ve wasted here

All the words that you waste debating

Every word so intimidating

I can let a lot of things that you say go

I could never let another day go

All the words that evaporated

Every word so intimidating

I’ll never make mention of it if you say so

But I could never let another day go by

Surprise yourself with every word

It’s so absurd

All the words…

All the words that you punctuated

Every word so intimidating

I can let a lot of things that you say go

I could never let another day go

All the years that evaporated

All the tears that I tolerated

I’ll never make mention of it if you say so

But I could never let another day go by
