These are the words
That fight on your lips
When you're sleeping.
These are the words
That ring in your ears
When there's no-one at the door.
These are the words
That stick between your teeth
When you swallow.
These are the words
That you couldn't spit out
If you wanted.
These are the words
You carry all year
In an ulcer.
These are the words
That stay behind
Whenever you slam the door.
