    Verse 1
    The 
    poison 
    pen, 
    it 
    writes 
    again, 

    I 
    understand 
    it 
    too 
    well. 

    But 
    I 
    don't 
    heed, 
    I 
    just 
    won't 
    read, 

    a 
    word 
    that 
    leads 
    me to 
    hell. 

    An 
    envelope, 
    a 
    slippery 
    slope, 

    gets 
    pushed 
    as 
    far 
    as 
    it's 
    fell. 

    The 
    paper's 
    thin, 
    the 
    words 
    within, 

    no 
    longer 
    do 
    as 
    they 
    tell. 

    I 
    tear 
    it 
    all 
    up, 
    tear 
    it 
    all 
    down, 

    don't 
    make 
    no 
    sound 

    Yeah, 
    tear 
    it 
    all 
    up, 
    tear 
    it 
    all 
    down, 

    don't 
    make 
    me 
    frown 

    The 
    poison 
    pen, 
    we're 
    right 
    again, 

    no 
    heart 
    would 
    proofread 
    those 
    words 

    Demeaning 
    as 
    the 
    meaning 
    is, 

    it 
    must 
    be 
    read 
    to be 
    heard. 

    Atrocities, 
    fatrocities, 

    don't 
    miss 
    a 
    chance 
    to 
    be 
    clear. 

    Ferocity, 
    toxicity, 

    oh 
    how 
    it 
    flows 
    from 
    the 
    dip. 

    The 
    sticks 
    and 
    the stones, 
    picking 
    the 
    bones, 
    not 
    missing 
    words, 

    how 
    stories 
    are 
    bound, 
    that's 
    they're 
    found, 
    they 
    must 
    be 
    heard. 

    The 
    poison 
    pen, 
    it 
    writes 
    again, 

    I 
    understand 
    it too 
    well. 

    And 
    I don't 
    heed, 
    I 
    just 
    won't 
    read, 

    A 
    word 
    that 
    leads 
    me 
    to 
    hell. 

    The 
    heart 
    below, 
    a 
    slippery 
    slope, 

    Gets 
    pushed 
    afar 
    as 
    it fell. 

    The 
    paper's 
    thin, 
    the 
    words 
    within, 

    no 
    longer 
    do 
    as 
    they tell. 

    I 
    tear 
    it 
    all 
    up, 
    tear 
    it 
    all 
    down, 

    don't 
    make 
    no 
    sound. 

    Yeah, 
    tear 
    it 
    all 
    down, 
    tear 
    it 
    all 
    down, 

    don't 
    make 
    me 
    frown. 

    The 
    poison 
    pen, 
    all 
    right 
    again, 

    no 
    hardwood 
    proof, 
    read 
    the 
    words 

    The 
    meaning 
    is, 
    the 
    meaning 
    is, 

    it 
    must 
    be 
    read 
    to 
    be 
    heard 

    Atrocities, 
    across 
    the 
    teens, 

    don't 
    miss 
    a 
    chance 
    to 
    dig 
    in 

    Morosity, 
    toxicity, 

    oh 
    how 
    it flows 
    from 
    the 
    near 

    The 
    sticks 
    and 
    the 
    stones, 

    picking 
    up 
    bones, 
    not missing 
    words 

    Our 
    stories 
    are 
    bound, 
    that's 
    how 
    they're 
    found, 

    they 
    must 
    be 
    heard

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
