Lyrics
Foolishness spewing through cracks in the surface of my flesh
I've gone violet, I've gone violent
The sky’s on fire, blotting out the sun
There’s just a cloud of rage and it burns my eyes

I will bite my tongue, tame these emotions
(A bitter taste on my teeth from bitter words on my lips)
I will shut my mouth, I swear I've done enough
(My voice volcanic, erupting with burning vitriol)

I can't believe I let this happen again
Buried in ashes of consequence
I'm ashamed but sorry is never enough
So I'll sing the same song I've always sung

I will bite my tongue, tame these emotions
(A bitter taste on my teeth from bitter words on my lips)
I will shut my mouth, I swear I've done enough
(My voice volcanic, erupting with burning vitriol)

Even foolish men are wise when they learn to keep quiet
Even foolish men are wise when they learn to keep quiet
Even foolish men are wise when they learn to keep quiet

I will bite my tongue, tame these emotions
(A bitter taste on my teeth from bitter words on my lips)
I will shut my mouth, I swear I've done enough
(My voice volcanic, erupting with burning vitriol)

I've gone violet
I've gone violent
