"Held Your Tongue" lyrics - JERRY CANTRELL

No tearful confession
I admit to nothing wrong
Therapeutic regression
I'll be waiting for you when it falls to dark
Who put out your spark?

Slow and steady, no resting
Are you ready to play that role?
From the tip to the fadeout
I leave you swinging blindly in the dark
Try to make your mark

[Chorus:]
Had my fun (Hung and dried)
Held your tongue (Young you tried)
Had my fun (Hung and dried)
Held your tongue

Kinda feel like it's played out
Even as you win you know
By design it's a shakedown
Wringing out a lone drop from a withered heart
Well, it is a start

[Bridge:]
We belong together
Separate never
We belong together
We share this space in time

[Chorus:]
Had my fun (Hung and dried)
Held your tongue (Young you tried)
Had my fun (Hung and dried)
Held your tongue

No tearful confession
I admit to nothing wrong
Therapeutic regression
I'll be waiting on you 'fore it all goes dark
And put out your spark

[Bridge:]
We belong together
Separate never
We belong together
We share this space in time

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus:]
(Young you tried) Had my fun
(Hung and dried) Held your tongue
(Young you tried) Had my fun
(Hung and dried) Held your tongue
