From Mind To Mouth
we often begin with ,do you know?
before we offer any suggestion
but dont you think if they really knew
there would be no reason to ask that question
some of us speak
just as fast as most can blink
and words seem to come out of our mouths
before we can even think
some of the things we tend to say
can't even be justified
and once we realize we made a mistake
we just stand there questioning why
yes the mind is a terrible thing to waste
for its so full of deception
but it is the tounge that tells the tale
for it is our most dangerous weapon
just think of all the brillant minds in history
that somehow ended up dead
it was;nt their thoughts that cause their demises
i beleive it was something they said
