[00:28.34]I would rather suffer sweet
[00:31.99]silent solitude
[00:34.05]Deathly defiant from drowning out
[00:39.42]Filthy sounds stumbling,
[00:42.16]ugly and cruel
[00:45.29]Between the lips of your
[00:48.22]beautiful mouth
[00:49.71]
[00:50.70]Deep down within me words
[00:53.88]move in phases
[00:56.37]Frozen and still
[00:59.06]until they decide
[01:01.06]
[01:01.94]To melt and drip over
[01:05.68]the pages
[01:07.42]Until that moment
[01:09.61]
[01:10.24]they live inside.
[01:13.04]My words enjoy the
[01:15.53]feel of the paper
[01:18.59]Better than me,
[01:20.57]lay with your consonants
[01:23.44]
[01:24.07]Once they get going
[01:26.50]they never waver
[01:28.99]
[01:29.68]And they slip in between your if,
[01:32.99]ands, and buts.
[01:35.11]
[01:56.82]When my words are
[01:58.57]hiding between the lines
[02:03.00]Then i'm afraid they
[02:05.37]won't hear me call
[02:08.56]What if they fail me
[02:11.05]without a sign?
[02:13.49]
[02:14.11]What if they hardly
[02:16.73]surface at all?
[02:18.91]
[02:19.60]Screaming and throwing
[02:22.03]your weight around
[02:25.09]My words choose
[02:26.31]knowledge over politics
[02:29.87]
[02:30.68]You can't kill my words .
[02:33.83]they know no bounds
[02:36.19]My words are strong and
[02:37.69]they don't make me sick.
[02:41.87]They still remain my
[02:44.68]only companion
[02:46.86]
[02:47.36]Boiling truth to the
[02:50.54]very end
[02:53.04]They'll never ever
[02:55.03]completely abandon
[02:58.59]Ever give up the paper
[03:01.65]and the pen
