Burnt Tongue

I'm so happy that you can yell at everyone I'm so happy that you can express youself I'm so happy that this world isn't what you expected I'm just so parched that your so high up on your horse And now I'm mad, now I'm sad, now I just dont understand Why you care about two people fallin in love Why you care if I drink or if I do drugs I just wanna scream into your eyes Make you realize that what you say isn't always right Now right and wrong, it's all opinion Black and white, yes I think they deserve, to be colors too So how about me and you, is there any truth You cant change the world with one voice if the tongue is burned I'm so happy that you can climb a mountain high I'm so happy that you think its my job to be the wife Yeah I'm so happy that your such a hypocrit I'm so grateful for you to tell me lies And now I'm mad, now I'm sad, now I just dont understand Why its your job to fix us all And preach your words to a raging band Someday you will see That there is more than just degree In this world that we praise peace Peace is lost in the sea
