Powderfinger - Swollen Tongue lyrics

There's poison on my fingers I've got healers for my eyes My insight thaws You should be safe to try it I've got bricks for shoes And a swollen tongue An eagle to ignore A pregnant pause You should be safe to buy in Only the fallen can rise You only need a past to be deprived They crumble and determine And speak in words unkind A bail out clause I don't have the means to try it So, fear will keep the [unverified] who lie That leaves me walking blind Like open sores The dogs will be there to try it Only the swollen divide You only need to ask to be denied You should be safe to buy in
