My Words (not yours)

from one million things by of Lyle

/

lyrics

My words not yours, to my surprise,
My words not yours, though you disguise them

Algorithmic functions, words carefully chosen
But you cover them, But you cover them up

You scream my name is silent ways,
Distant murmurs, pocket vibrations

You steal the attention intended for the one I’m with
And make that one friend say “I told you so”
Jeez, let it go please

I forgot to write my name on my belongings
The problem was words so charming
Distance as polish to my knowledge
The syllables, the digital scribbles my thumbs did

Assorted sordid topics, what Monk said,
Japan, ego, escapist, morbid

I’ll admit it to prove it’s what I said
I’ll admit it to prove it’s what I said

My words not yours, to my surprise.
My words not yours, though you disguise them.

Algorithmic functions, words carefully chosen.
But you cover them, but you cover them up.
