ANGRY WORDS
Angry words on the wire
Tattered tempers on the phone.
If I believed every word you said, sitting in this room alone…
When I break the connection
With a word said in haste,
Just a twist of the sweetest lips leaves a bitter taste.

I can't hear her voice. I don't like the tone.
Hanging on for nothing but...

Angry words on the wire---
What a cruel game to play.
Just how ruffled can my feathers get before I'll fly away?
Like a mallet of the handle;
The receiver hammers down.
My heart stops when the cradle rocks,
Died in anger born of sound.

I can't hear her voice. I don't like the tone.
Hanging on for nothing but...

Angry words on the wire,
Accusations on the phone.
You know I smiled when I first dialed,
Sitting in this room alone.

I can't hear her voice. I don't like the tone.
Hanging on for nothing but...
