[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I bit my tongue for far too long
Salt hits the wound, I'm dormant but the night is young
No punishment deserves this crime
Patience can wait, the last thing on your side is time
[Pre-Chorus]
Temptation reminds me, my weakness defines me
[Verse 2]
You lend an ear, I chew it off
You disappear to see how quickly we move on
To cut you slack is to concede
I’d face the facts but I don't believe a thing I read
[Pre-Chorus]
The monster inside me ascending the ivory
Temptation reminds me, my weakness is defining me
[Chorus]
Maybe I'll never find my voice
Could I ever change a thing?
When will my signal turn to noise
From a whisper to a scream?
[Verse 1]
I bit my tongue for far too long
Salt hits the wound, I'm dormant but the night is young

[Verse 2]
You lend an ear, I chew it off
You disappear to see how quickly we move on
To cut you slack is to concede
I’d face the facts but I don't believe a thing I read
[Pre-Chorus]
The monster inside me ascending the ivory
Temptation reminds me, my weakness is defining me
[Chorus]
Maybe I'll never find my voice
Could I ever change a thing?
When will my signal turn to noise
From a whisper to a scream?
