Words Don't Come So Easily - Lower Than Atlantis

I’m sitting opposite you

On this table for two

You reach for your glass

And i reach for mine

You’re drinking water, i’m drinking wine

I’m looking around the room

Avoiding eye contact with you

Where’s the waiter?

Where is this meal?

My lips are moving, your lips are sealed

But the words that i spoke

They got stuck in my throat

As i started to choke

You just laughed and you joked

People started to stare

As i fell off my chair

And i’m gasping for air

But you don’t seem to care

Words don’t come so easily

When you’re in front of me

Can’t give me back my tongue please?

Words don’t come so easily

When you’re in front of me

Can’t give me back my tongue please?

I’m thinking as i eat

Biting cutlery chipping my teeth

You’ve leaped in my lungs

And ripped out my tongue

Cause on the bright side i’ve just written a song

But the words that i spoke

They got stuck in my throat

As i started to choke

You just laughed and you joked

People started to stare

As i fell off my chair

And i’m gasping for air

But you don’t seem to care

Words don’t come so easily

When you’re in front of me

Can’t give me back my tongue please?

Words don’t come so easily

When you’re in front of me

Can’t give me back my tongue please?

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out

(Words don’t come so easily, When you’re in front of me)

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out

(Can't give me back my tongue please?)

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out

(Words don’t come so easily, When you’re in front of me)

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out

(Can't give me back my tongue please?)
