Bite My Tongue

Up and leave it on the line
See you cuttin down all the things you like
Smilin like you’re not spittin out spite
I could hardly recognize you
No one’s makin you stay
No I hate it when you look at me that way
Eyes shot
With your edges frayed
And you’re holding your breath
Too scared of where it’s gunna take yuh

Feels like you’re lookin for a sign
Like a green light
Green eyes
Everybody has what you want
Their body, somebody, nobody holding them back

Oh I bite my tongue
Can you swallow your pride?
Do you really even want it?
Is it ruinin your life?
Oo when you gunna make up your mind?
Oh you lose your grip
When you hold too tight
See you swingin your fists but you’re losin your fight
It’s not a crime to change your mind

Stalled out on the startin line
Wonderin at the reasons why
No one’s comin to make you try
Cut your teeth & grow a spine
Oh it’s too late
Can’t be giving all your life away
If time’s the price you gotta pay
Are you gunna shell it out
Are you gunna shell it out

Oh I bite my tongue
Can you swallow your pride?
Do you really even want it
Is it ruinin your life?
Talk it up
Play it down
When you gunna make up your mind?
Oh you’ll lose your grip
When you hold too tight
See you swingin your fists
But you’re losin your fight
It’s not a crime
To change your mind

Would you want it
Don’t you want it
If you want it

Ooooh

Oh I bite my tongue
Can you swallow your pride?
Do you really even want it
Is it ruinin your life?
Talk it up
Play it down
When you gunna make up your mind?
Oh you’ll lose your grip
When you hold too tight
See you swingin your fists
But you’re losin your fight
It’s not a crime
To change your mind
