It Is Best To Keep It All Inside

[Verse 1]

It is best to keep it all inside

When the quicksand fills your boots

And rises past your eyes

It is better to die suffocating

And choking on your pride

It is best to keep it all inside

[Verse 2]

When she's telling you that you're no good

And that you'll never be much more

Than some fool carved out of wood

It's best to kill her with your kindness

While you're sleeping in her bed

It is best to keep it all inside

[Verse 3]

It is never too late to come home

You will always have your box in your room

Where your mama lays your clothes out

And she leaves you where you lie

It is best to keep it all inside

[Verse 4]

But when it's good, it's really good

When there's fruit up on the table

And she treats you like she should

There's no need to get excited

Or let your heels click on the floor

It is best to keep it all inside

It is best to keep it all inside
