lyrics
Bite your tongue
Hold your lip
You're hanging on for that one last kiss
But I'm fucking done with this
Make your mark
You made your bed
The things you said were better left unsaid
So now you'll lie in it.
All I wanted was some retribution
For the things that you said
I don't want to make this work
I want to make it hurt
Worse than it ever did
All I wanted was some retribution
For the things that you said
I don't want to make this work
I want to make it hurt
And I was desperate
I desperately tried
To make this work at least 100 times
It's just not quite right
But that was all that I could compromise
He took your head and filled up with lies
But if that's what it takes I'll try it
Perfectly encapsulates the teenage experience. Finding this album while still young and in high school was the best decision I've made in quite awhile. charlesjr
