Vehement

You talk so much that you must think your tongue spools out from your brain

But those around you demand your wisdom to combat the lowly inane

Oh how you make me hate the freedom of speech

because you use it like your throat sprung a leak

And actions do speak certainly

but since you won’t pay attention shut your mouth and listen to me

I’ve got to get myself to forget myself, I’ve got to get myself to forget myself

The soapbox you stand on has got a few cracks

The horse that you ride is quite high

Perhaps you’re as wise as your words may suggest

or perhaps you wear a disguise

For all the wrong that you call to attention

some seems to have been misplaced

And since you speak so honestly

why don’t you point your finger right back in your own face?

I’ve got to get myself to forget myself, I’ve got to get myself to forget myself

I’ve got to get myself to forget myself, I’ve got to get myself to forget myself

Lord I hate the sin so much, but I love the sinner, I certainly do

But how will they know how to purge the evil, if I don’t tell them what to do?

I’ve got to get myself to forget myself, I’ve got to get myself to forget myself

I’ve got to get myself to forget myself, I’ve got to get myself to forget myself

I’ve got to get myself to forget myself, I’ve got to get myself to forget myself

I’ve got to get myself to forget myself, I’ve got to get myself to forget myself
