Words

The power words have is unreal
To use them to kill or to help others feel
The struggle with them between my tongue
To show that I have a power that's real
I can show you the world if I say the right things
I can show you the past if you let me take you
Let me show you how

Hold my hand while I whisper things
While I tell my story in your ear
Show me you know how to feel
I'm feeling this connection within my soul
That you're really not alone

Just say the word and I'll put you in my zone
I'll make sure words won't hurt
I just want to see how you work
My story is not yet complete
Without you in it

Hold my hand while I whisper things
While I tell my story in your ear
Show me you know how to feel
I'm feeling this connection within my soul
That you're really not alone

I'll hold you tight
You don't have to fight
You'll be safe as long as your on my mind
These words creep away
Their love for you is forbidden
I can't have them know
That their love is a hoax
Can't have them saying you're a perfect pair
Loading my gun and knowing you're there
Their words in my head
Saying "she better not be dead"
I had no choice but to kill you off
No one can love you
But me
