📝 Lyrics:
I’ll bite my tongue til it bleeds
Metallic tranquility
The pain gets buried beneath
When I bite my tongue til it bleeds
I know the guilt and shame you hide
Kept your secrets deep inside
I internalized them, blamed myself and
Stepped in the line of fire
Sacrificed myself but why
You resent me every time
So when you point that finger point it at the mirror like
I’ll bite my tongue til it bleeds
Metallic tranquility
The pain gets buried beneath
But I'll bite my tongue til it bleeds
I could destroy you with one line
And the world would take my side
But I’d never go that low like you seem to go every time
Just be human, fuck your pride
You’re addicted to the fight
I want off this ride so I won’t spend another night
I’ll bite my tongue til it bleeds
Metallic tranquility
The pain gets buried beneath
The road is high and it’s steep
I waive white flags, keep the peace
In Eden’s garden of trees
You place the traps, plant the seeds
But I’ll bite my tongue til it bleeds
Pain, pain I put you through this
Enjoy the hell that you need
Deploy the darkness you seek
Destroy yourself without me
I’ll bite my tongue til it bleeds
I’ll bite my tongue til it bleeds
I know that you don’t believe
