biting my tongue

Tried to make everyone happy first

Jumped through hoops like fancy needle work

I'm held together by a thread

Missing 'cause I always aim to please

Never ask for what I need

I keep putting me in second-best

Empty my head, use all my energy

'Cause I want to impress, so I'll play figurine

I'll bend backwards 'til my back hurts

And I'm

Biting my tongue

I'm going off the deep end, and I'm tired of it all

But awake enough to pretend

Biting my tongue

I've been making it a problem, and I'm tired of it all

Can't be awake with all these fake friends

Never let bridges burn

Giving, never getting in return

I'm lying in the bed I've made (Bed I've made, bed I've made)

One-sided friendship

Always leave it open-ended

I'm sick of carrying the weight (Weight)

Empty my head, use all my energy

'Cause I want to impress, so I'll play figurine

I'll bend backwards 'til my back hurts

And I'm

Biting my tongue

I'm going off the deep end, and I'm tired of it all

But awake enough to pretend

Biting my tongue

I've been making it a problem, and I'm tired of it all

Can't be awake with all these fake friends

Biting my tongue

Don't ask me why I never speak my mind

Holding my breath

Although it hurts, I swallow the words
