  • You claiming you
    The king of the castle
    When I cannot prove
    You wrong

    Then you lose
    What you held
    Tryina handle
    That I haven't moved
    Beyond

    My anger is not quiet
    But I taught it to be still
    My hunger is not mild
    But I trained it not to kill
    This mouth it could run wild
    But I've shown it greater skill
    My love beats louder still you

    Talk like you got a mouth
    Made for silence
    I'm thinking it's about
    Time you tried it
    Talk like you got

    If I heard it once
    It's good a thousand times
    Stop dragging this on
    You done breaking up my mind
    What more you want?
    Took all that you could find
    You tore this to pieces
    Now peace is harder to find

    My anger is not quiet
    But I taught it to be still
    My hunger is not mild
    But I trained it not to kill
    This mouth it could run wild
    But I've shown it greater skill
    My love beats louder still you

    Talk like you got a mouth
    Made for silence
    I'm thinking it's about
    Time you tried it
    Talk like you got a mouth
    Made for silence
    I'm thinking it's about
    Time you tried it

    Talk like you got a mouth
    Made for silence
    I'm thinking it's about
    Time you tried it
    Talk like you got a mouth
    Made for silence
    I'm thinking it's about
    Time you tried it Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
