Hidden Stills - Come Undone Lyrics

The blood is in the water and your thoughts are bleeding out
The vultures they are circling 'round the carcass of your doubt
You sense the end is coming still they're picking at the bones
And you try to reach the surface but you're sinking like a stone

And if you bite your tongue, maybe peace will come, maybe you'll come undone

It's a fragile conversation that you whisper in your sleep
A dirty little secret that you promised not to keep
And you're scratching at the blister 'cos there's something underneath
And you wrap it up in sorrow but it doesn't bring relief
But if you bite your tongue, maybe the end will come, maybe you'll come undone

And it's just a simple question
Some easy words to say
You try to reach the answer but there's something in the way
And the truth is getting restless
It knows no other way
It's hard to hear the silence when there's nothing left to say

And you're pulling at the threads and now the truth has come unspun
It's spilling out like water and the cup has over run
It catches in your throat but still you want to end the drought
It's poison on your lips but you can't spit it from your mouth
But if you bite your tongue, maybe peace will come, maybe you'll come undone

You think you're coming undone
You're treading water and you're coming unspun
You keep on biting your tongue
The truth is restless, and the silence won't come

And you're looking for an answer but it's hidden far too deep
You dig it from your memory and your thoughts begin to creep
You find it and you let it find its way out of your head
It's hanging in the air and then message falls like lead

And if you bite your tongue, maybe peace will come, maybe you'll come undone

And it's just a simple question
Some easy words to say
You try to reach the answer but there's something in the way
And the truth is getting restless
It knows no other way
It's hard to hear the silence when there's nothing left to say
