[Verse 1]
I was going to spell it out in full detail but
I dropped the call before I spilled my guts
But your floor stayed clean, like my conscience will be
'Cause if you heard anything, you didn't hear it from me
[Verse 2]
I'm sweeping up the seconds that tick off the clock
And saving them for later when I'm too ticked to talk
And I need some time to search my mind
To locate the words that seem so hard to find
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I say things that
I wish that I could take back
The most crucial thing I lack is a thing called tact
And if you're always so intently listening
Then the smartest thing to say is to tell myself not to say a thing
[Chorus]
Yeah, I gotta keep quiet, quiet
Don't let it all come undone
'Cause if I dare open my mouth
It'll just be to bite my tongue
To bite my tongue
I was going to spell it out in full detail but
I dropped the call before I spilled my guts
But your floor stayed clean, like my conscience will be
'Cause if you heard anything, you didn't hear it from me
[Verse 2]

And saving them for later when I'm too ticked to talk
And I need some time to search my mind

I wish that I could take back
The most crucial thing I lack is a thing called tact
And if you're always so intently listening
Then the smartest thing to say is to tell myself not to say a thing

Yeah, I gotta keep quiet, quiet
Don't let it all come undone
'Cause if I dare open my mouth
It'll just be to bite my tongue
To bite my tongue
