Leaky Faucet
I need to shut up
My mouth flows like a leaky faucet
Drip, drip, drip
I don't remember losing this much water
But there it lays
Filling three buckets in front of me
Drip, drip, drip
And I don't mean I'll shut off the water
Drip, drip, drip
But sometimes the leaky faucet
Drowns out the noise of the clock ticking
Or the birds singing
Hell, I haven't heard the wind brushing the trees in a while
Drip, drip, drip
It gets annoying
And sometimes I like to hear other noises
Instead of the faucet that can't seem to be quiet
