Use Your Words Lyrics

Aye

Listen

The clouds look grayer than they normally do

I sound my prayer like they told me to do

See I'm just trying to survive, and I'm hoping I do

I'm just lucky I'm alive, it's the coping I do

I use music to circumvent the pain of existing

Venting to a mic so I never go missing

Pretending that I'm popping when nobody's listening

But even when I'm down, hope my words are uplifting

Most everybody's broken, in need of some fixing

No matter how amazing, no matter how gifted

No matter if they're firing on every piston

I know a guy who's tiring to keep himself living

And I ain't got no shame in admitting my pain now

Saying every day sort of feels the same now

No one's gotta worry 'cause I've figured a way out

I'll just grab a pen and write my pain out

What if everything you do is not enough?

What if you're all out of fuel and out of love?

What if all your past mistakes are creeping up?

What if you picked up a pen and wrote 'em up?

I think I think too much

Scribbling my thoughts, using ink too much

I don't really wanna see my shrink too much

She'll just tell me that I shouldn't drink too much

Look, aye

And I'm not into stuff

Losing all my interest in the things I've loved

Haunted by the many psycho things I've done

I don't see a way I could win too much

'Cause I think back to the times that I lost my own mind

And it pains me and strains me to no end

I felt terribly alone, with no friends

Broken gears in my dome, and no pen

To articulate the pain and show them

What it's like when reality is broken

But I guess I don't need to feel hopeless

I'll just grab a pen and paper

Take a seat and focus

And I'm sayin'

What if everything you do is not enough?

What if you're all out of fuel and out of love?

What if all your past mistakes are creeping up?

What if you picked up a pen and wrote 'em up?

What if everything you say is being heard?

What if all the pain you face you can avert?

What if all your days no longer felt so blurred?

What if all you gotta do is use your words?

What if all you gotta do is use your words?

All you gotta do is use your words
