I opened my mouth and spoke the words
That have been left unheard
Only to wish I didn’t speak
I’m left incomplete
Feeling regret for what I’ve said
I should’ve left those words in my head
I don’t know why I feel the need to speak
Or the need to seek when feeling weak
Or the need to share and let it be aware
That my heart has a tear
I’m always left feeling great despair
Always wearing my feelings on my face
Ones I wish I could erase or replace
Keys to my throat not left under the door
The letters of my words falling to the floor
Like a pencil with no lead
Or a phone that’s always dead
