Bite My Tongue

You won't shut up and I'm holding back
All the empty space is filled with your stories of a time
You'll soon forget

Do I still remind you of yourself
Wide eyed and hopeful through this living hell
You put me through for loving you

And you asked me why
I would always lie

I wanted you to know my name
If only I could help you to forget it
The way it feels to cry at nineteen
Hurts a lot more when you understand it
Now I bite my tongue, hold my breath and for what?
I don't know I guess
Maybe I failed at something you did right

I don't miss you, I just want it back
All the things I could've had but didn't get
You pushed me down under your thumb

And you wonder why
All I did was lie
I wanted you to know my name
If only I could help you to forget it
The way it feels to cry at nineteen
Hurts a lot more when you understand it
Now I bite my tongue, hold my breath and for what?
I don't know I guess
Maybe I failed at something you did right

I wanted you to know
I wanted you to know
I wanted you to know
I wanted you to know my name

If only I could help you to forget it
The way it feels to cry at nineteen
Hurts a lot more when you understand it
Bite my tongue, hold my breath and for what?
I don't know I guess
Maybe I failed at something you did right
