Words Get In The Way

from Baby Steps - Singles 2013 by Woolen Warrior

lyrics

words get in the way
building barricades
high so i see
you less everyday
girl i gotta know
why but words get in the way

selfish sentencing (i can)
bridle, bit, and rein (tell when)
tied to tight to (you're not listening, selfish sentencing)
speak when spoken to (my light-)
always miss the cue (-house is)
hiding in the words you say (growing dimmer while your ship runs astray)

can't you ever just say what you mean
i'm the one that's suffering in this jagged compromise
is your love just like the bee that stings
singing oh no you've killed me now

static simmering (all i)
sorry for the sting (need is)
i've been sharing (sheltered space where I can feel safe but you)
empty vessels make (hide be-)
useful canidates (-hind the)
always last to take the blame (circled logic you've placed to draw the eye)

i still love you
do you love me to?
