My words are sharp
Like some diamonds
Too much pressure and they′ll cut into your liningI swear it will hurt
With every single word

The things I think kinda make me scared
The things I think-I-think-I′m—

From saying what I want
And I promised I would stop and think it through
But I'm a flake, you really should′ve knew
I'm stuck holding back my tongue
From saying what I want, ah-ah
