Story Behind The Song

This was the first song written for The Responsible Artist EP and began my experimentation with being am epic, experimental, one man band.

Lyrics

watch your tongue
you'd better mind what you say
ticking away each day
like its the last one

hold that thought
be sure to mind when you speak
and take nothing of what you see
except what's granted to you

watch your tongue
before it gives you away
hold the hand that feeds you
but don't let it come inside

i fell in love with that feeling but it turned on me
it put my life in a jar and set it out of reach
then said:
"nothing in this world is free
if this is what you need
you'd better beg and plead yeah"

bite your tongue
calm the thoughts in your head
picking and picking
the words to form
all the answers you choose
