[Verse 1]
I am the crook who robs me
I am my own adversary
I am my enemy, I am my enemy
And my mouth is an army
[Verse 2]
And when the night falls on me
I become anything but free
I get so sick of this, it gets ridiculous
My mouth is an army
[Chorus]
The sound in my mouth
It gets so loud, it gets so loud
The little words can't slip out
Words like sorry, and I'm so sorry
Yeah
[Verse 3]
I am the tyrant of discourse
I am the beater of the dead horse
I am the irritant, I am the irritant
And my mouth is a brute force
[Verse 4]
Here we are in another night
Gearin' up for a social accident
When we pick pride, or pick sides, or pick fights
My mouth is an army
[Chorus]
The sound in my mouth
It gets so loud, it gets so loud
The little words can't slip out
Words like sorry
[Chorus]
The sound in my mouth
It gets so loud, it gets so loud
The little words can't slip out
Words like sorry, and I'm so sorry
Yeah
[Bridge 1]
Where will you find yourself without love?
Give love to someone else, is that enough?
If love is to find yourself, are you finding love?
Or are you picking sides?
[Chorus / Bridge 2]
The sound in my mouth
It gets so loud, it gets so loud
It gets so loud, it gets so loud
It gets so loud, it gets so loud
It gets so loud
[Chorus]
The sound in my mouth
It gets so loud, it gets so loud
The little words can't slip out
Words like sorry, and I'm so sorry
