Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Silence speaks louder than I ever could

I can't breathe, I'm suffocating on my words

And maybe the story that's been left unsaid

Is gasoline just waiting for the perfect match

[Chorus]

I'm biting my tongue (Biting my tongue)

Avoiding the words I can't take back

Whatever I've done (What I've done)

I just wanna love and not look back

Forget the promises we can't keep

I'm begging you to set me free

I'm biting my tongue (Biting my tongue)

Can you blame me for that?

[Verse 2]

You're running your mouth, it's wearing me down

I'm screaming out, but you won't hear a sound

'Cause tearing you down, oh, nobody wins

I'm tryna be better than I've ever been, oh

[Chorus]

I'm biting my tongue (Biting my tongue)

Avoiding the words I can't take back

Whatever I've done (What I've done)

I just wanna love and not look back

Forget the promises we can't keep

I'm begging you to set me free

I'm biting my tongue (Biting my tongue)

Can you blame me for that?

[Bridge]

Hope you got all that you wanted

But I don't want revenge

I won't hurt you how you hurt me

I want this to end

[Chorus]

I'm biting my tongue (Biting my tongue)

Avoiding the words I can't take back

Whatever I've done (What I've done)

I just wanna love and not look back

Forget the promises we can't keep

I'm begging you to set me free

I'm biting my tongue (Biting my tongue)

Can you blame me for that?

[Outro]

(Biting my tongue)

(Biting my tongue)

Forget the promises we can't keep

I'm begging you to set me free

I'm biting my tongue (Biting my tongue)
