Sudden Impact

[Intro]
Scarred inside, no cure in sight
Verbal strife cuts like a knife
Scarred inside, no cure in sight
Verbal strife cuts like a knife

[Verse 1]
Before I slip, please come and arrest me
So many times, I've resorted to hostility
What's with me when I feel the heat?
I look back at a time filled with innocence
The memories and all that it meant
It's been destroyed; self-control's what I need

[Chorus]
The mind is restlеss
Turbulent, obstinate
To subdue is likе
Controlling the wind
So much invested
Thrown away
Now our words pay

[Post-Chorus]
Scarred inside, no cure in sight
Verbal strife cuts like a knife

[Verse 2]
My tongue is weak, speaking up and against me
It's saying things that I know that I should never say
It's made me weak; I need some time to think
Just turn your back and forget me
In all due time, it will come to surpass me
Hard like a fist, the words are received

[Chorus]
The mind is restless
Turbulent, obstinate
To subdue is like
Controlling the wind
So much invested
Thrown away
Now our words pay

[Bridge]
Your tongue can be your worst enemy
(Your worst enemy)
With its own mind, it can run so free
(Run so free)
Without much thought, it can bring you down
(It can bring you down)
With foot in mouth, brought right to the ground

It comes back, time and time again
(Time and time again)
Our words are hostile, whirling in the wind
(In the wind)
Our composure is what we need
(Is what we need)
If such a thing as affinity

[Post-Bridge]
Scarred inside, no cure in sight
Verbal strife cuts like a knife
Scarred inside, no cure in sight
Verbal strife cuts like a knife

[Chorus]
The mind is restless
Turbulent, obstinate
To subdue is like
Controlling the wind
So much invested
Thrown away
Now our words pay
