All Ears

Came by to make you angrier again.

Gonna try and make you angrier enough.

I'm all ears now

Volunteer how I'm gonna find a way to keep this civilized.

It helps if you just tell me what to say.

It'd help if you'd just tell me anything.

I'm all ears now

Volunteer how,

I'm not asking anymore,

I'm not asking anymore

How I'm gonna find a way to keep this civilized.

If you fall back

On anger now

Swear you are forgiven.

Your anger suits you:

It makes you…beautiful.

Gives you confidence to come at me

With more than your bare hands.

Not here to break you,

But all the words tonight are careful,

Chosen, pert, and kind.

Trying to say that I…

Trying to say that I…

Trying to say that I've stopped trying.

If you rise above,

If you rise at all,

Probably be now.
