Lyrics
Crooked Tongue”
Verse 1
I had a habit of bending the air
Till the truth couldn’t breathe
Every word came out dressed in smoke
Like it was easier to leave
I built my voice out of mirrors
Nothing stayed the same
You were looking for something real
I just handed you a name
Pre-Chorus
You were counting on the ground to hold
I kept shifting underneath
Now I feel it in the silence
You don’t give to me
Chorus
I’ve got a crooked tongue that cut through everything we built
Now every word I try to say just tastes like it’s still guilt
If I could lay the truth out clean, no edges, no disguise
Maybe you’d see something different when you look me in the eyes
But I don’t blame you for the distance or the way you shut me out
I made a language out of lying—now I’m learning to speak without
Verse 2
I was patching up the cracks with more
Of the same thin thread
Every promise had a hollow core
Every “trust me” left for dead
You were giving me your patience
Like it wasn’t running dry
I kept thinking I could outrun it
Just by changing up the lie
Pre-Chorus
You were asking for the truth straight up
I kept twisting every line
Now I hear it in the echo
Every single time
Chorus
I’ve got a crooked tongue that cut through everything we built
Now every word I try to say just tastes like it’s still guilt
If I could lay the truth out clean, no edges, no disguise
Maybe you’d see something different when you look me in the eyes
But I don’t blame you for the distance or the way you shut me out
I made a language out of lying—now I’m learning to speak without
Bridge
I don’t get to rush this
I don’t get to heal it fast
Trust don’t come from saying it
It comes from what can last
So I’ll sit inside the damage
Every version of my fault
Let the quiet do the talking
Let the truth be my default
Outro
No more smoke to hide behind
No more shifting ground
If there’s anything left of me
It’s in what I don’t twist now
I won’t ask you to believe me
I know I wore that out
I’ll just be something steadier
If you ever come around
