Armoury
Don't use your words as weapons
Don't spit those bullets at me
Don't break me with your language
So ugly, hateful, unnecessary
Disarm yourself from aggression
Don't wound me with that spite
It won't help me understand you
Won't help you win this fight
Explain to me your issue
Be upset but don't be cruel
Because after all is said and done
You still want me to love you
So tell me why you hurt
But don't chip away at us
Because each time you do that
I like you slightly less
Let me keep respect for you
Let me hear you speak your mind
Let's figure out the difference
Between your opinion and mine
Words should not be combat
There's a glut of that for sure
Let's both just keep our dignity
I'm not here to keep score
Your ammunition is no good here
My defence now honed over time
So lay down your guns and speak to me
But please don't cross that line.
