Ben Kaplan - Wordsmith Legacy lyrics

Knock, knock, knock Sound the blows to the forehead from the Mock, mock, mock Of the words, a voice I hear every morning Stalking me from yesterday The taunts of one who sought to frame The picture of this desolate This figure cowering Every word a double edged sword A double edged sword My every word Drop, drop, drop Sound the sledge to the metal Shot, shot, shot Sound the pin to the chamber My own words pound after me Intentions bent on conquering The very will I proudly claimed Was the very axe that cut the nape Every word a double edged sword A double edged sword My every word (I'll never, ever look back All the time it was me Sitting still, sitting still Arrogant mindset of lusts They search and strain and drink and stagger When we are hollow Sitting still, sitting still You hate us cause we'll never go away) "You can drown In your own mistakes Burrowing into the black Or you can take my hand" Double Edged Sword My every word "This gift was never yours So why would you ever think The words you said were your own? I have chosen And breathed And forgiven And changed Purged And cleaned And forgave And bathed Carried And soothed And burned And spoken Spoken and spoken Spoken and spoken Spoken and spoken... Yours is not to proclaim...but only to obey."
