A sharp tongue and wicked words mask your insecurity
Too unattached to slip up for a moment
Too afraid to let anyone in
So back out and run away once more
Saving yourself from your promise
One you made in confidence but one that was never meant to keep you bound
Your oaths dissolved with a virtuesque smile
Nobody owes you anything right?
Not even the emotional captives who lift you up, while their own hands break under the weight of your ego
