Broken Words

I'm standing way too close to the edge Of embarrassing myself again Every time I'm on this line The words that come out don't say what's on my mind What I'm feeling, I just can't express I hang tight I try not to spend all night Overthinking what was said As the words spin in my head Yeah, I try with all my might To get my sentences just right So I say just what I meant But it gets all fucked up instead It's like words are broken again Did I really mean those things I just said? Sounded better in my head Maybe Japanese wouldn't let me down So misunderstood, I've been handed the crown What I'm feeling, I just can't express (Can't express) I hang tight I try not to spend all night Overthinking what was said As the words spin in my head Yeah, I try with all my might To get my sentences just right So I say just what I meant But it gets all fucked up instead It's like words are broken again Like when I tell you I'm over this I don't mean that I'm over every Little piece of everything all at once I'm picking battles I won't regret Like when you tell me that I'm a mess Hurtful words just drift away We don't mean them the way we say so anyway I hang tight I try not to spend all night Overthinking what was said As the words spin in my head Yeah, I try with all my might To get my sentences just right So I say just what I meant But it gets all fucked up instead It's like words are broken again It's like words are broken again
