Think Before I Speak Lyrics by Sive

We Begin in Darkness

2022

[Verse 1]
I think before I speak sometimes
And then I think so much that I don't speak at all
I look before I jump sometimes
And I just look, and look, and look, and look
Just look, don't jump
Just keep looking, looking, looking
[Chorus]
But I don't want to play this game
Is it any wonder that I don't want to play this game?
'Cause I know you'll jump down my throat
If I don't pretend to have the answers
Is it any wonder at all, wonder at all, that we just shut down?
Oh
[Verse 2]
I speak before I think sometimes
And then I wonder why I ever speak at all
It all comes crashing out sometimes
'Til there are shards everywhere, they get in knots in the air
Oh I've been picking apart pieces of a shell I thought I needed
I just want to blow it up
But each time I carve a hole in it, you kick it and it hurts
And I get scared, but don't jump out
Peep over the edges, but don't jump out
Just keep looking, looking, looking
[Chorus]
But I don't want to play this game (I don't want to play this game)
Is it any wonder that I don't want to play this game? (I don't want to play this game)
I don't want to play this game (I don't want to play this game)
'Cause I know that you'll jump down my throat
If I don't pretend to have the answers
Is it any wonder at all, wonder at all?
