Lower Than Atlantis - Words Don't Come So Easily

I'm sitting opposite you
On this table for two
You reach for your glass
And I reach for mine
You're drinking water, I'm drinking wine

I'm looking around the room
Avoiding eye contact with you
Where's the waiter?
Where is this meal?
My lips are moving, your lips are sealed

But the words that I spoke
They got stuck in my throat
As I started to choke
You just laughed and you joked
People started to stare
As I fell off my chair
And I'm gasping for air
But you don't seem to care

Words don't come so easily
When you're in front of me
Can't give me back my tongue please?
Words don't come so easily
When you're in front of me
Can't give me back my tongue please?

I'm thinking as I eat
Biting cutlery chipping my teeth
You've leaped in my lungs
And ripped out my tongue
Cause on the bright side I've just written a song

But the words that I spoke
They got stuck in my throat
As I started to choke
You just laughed and you joked
People started to stare
As I fell off my chair
And I'm gasping for air
But you don't seem to care

Words don't come so easily
When you're in front of me
Can't give me back my tongue please?
Words don't come so easily
When you're in front of me
Can't give me back my tongue please?

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out
Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out
Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out
Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out
Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out
(Words don't come so easily, when you're in front of me)

Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out
(Can't give me back my tongue please?)
Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out
(Words don't come so easily, when you're in front of me)
Open mouth, scream and shout nothing out
(Can't give me back my tongue please?)
