Never Saying Anything

from Fade to Buzz by Rule of Thumb

/

lyrics

there’s a lot to be said
for not saying anything
i let it go, even though i know
what that will bring

cause every time i lose it
i have found
that getting worked up
only brings you down

when i keep my tongue in check
there’s a backup in my head
my congestion begs the question
is it better off said?

but every time i lose it
i have found
that getting worked up
only brings you down

so i’m never saying anything again

all this talk of keeping quiet
do you hear what i hear?
out of the sound and the fury
one thing is crystal clear

every time i lose it
i have found
that getting worked up
only brings you down

so i’m never saying anything

i’m carrying the weight of the world
one word at a time
