Biting My Tongue
Green Day

Verse 1:
I’m a puppet on a string, just a smile away from rage,
Pretending that I'm fine, while I'm trapped inside this cage.

Pre-Chorus:
Got a thousand things to say, can’t find the words to speak,
Every joke’s a dagger, and I’m feeling more than weak.

Chorus:
Biting my tongue, oh it’s killing me slowly,
You’re pushing my limits, and I’m feeling quite brody.
Every word unsaid, it’s a weight I can’t bear,
Boiling over the edge, can’t you tell? I’m almost there!

Verse 2:
Your sarcasm’s genius, I’ll give you that, I suppose,
But living on a leash, man, that’s how the story goes.

Pre-Chorus:
Got a mountain of frustration, and you're digging your own grave,
I’m the ticking time bomb, gonna snap, you better behave.

Chorus:
Biting my tongue, oh it’s killing me slowly,
You’re pushing my limits, and I’m feeling quite brody.
Every word unsaid, it’s a weight I can’t bear,
Boiling over the edge, can’t you tell? I’m almost there!

Bridge:
Just a match to the flame, can’t you see the sparks fly?
Been too patient for too long, now stand back, I won’t comply.
No more Mr. Nice Guy, I’m ready to explode,
You’ll regret the day you made me break my own code.

Chorus:
Biting my tongue, it’s the end of the story,
I’ll take this chance and rise, while you wallow in your glory.
Every word unsaid, now it’s time to declare,
This fire's finally burning, and I don’t even care!

Outro:
So here I go, postal, watch me as I ignite,
No more biting my tongue, no more silence in this fight.
You think you know me? You’re in for a surprise,
I’ve got a voice to unleash, and I’m ready to rise!
