Damn Words

They get in the way
Actions speak louder
I don't care what you have to say

You mumble 
You can't speak your thoughts
These words you jumble
You tie your tongue in knots

In your mind you get lost
You cause a disaster
These words you exhaust
Don't speak faster

Find something different
Use your mind
Don't be ignorant 
Are you blind

Don't use them in herds
What the hell
Damn words

This is actually pretty deep....it seems as though you are speaking about a guy that got you upset.
