[Rhythmic guitar riff] Bite Bleed Bite Bleed [Verse 1] [Male voice] I hold my peace, though it’s razor-thin, Watching fools chase their tails again, With every word they lie and believe, Bite down harder, with every tale they weave. [Pre-Chorus] Some days I swear I’ll let it out, But silence keeps the anger locked. But there's so much stupidity around, Keeping the weapon loaded and cocked. [Chorus] So I bite, bite till it hurts, Tongue bleeds red with every word, Hold back the flood behind my teeth, Watching them drown in their own deceit. Yeah, I bite, though it cuts me deep, Trying to stay civil while they stay asleep. [Verse 2] It’s a vaudeville act in a crowded room, Each one louder, no rhythm, no tune, I press my lips, I clench my jaw, Hoping that I avoid breaking the law. [Pre-Chorus] How long can I pretend to care, When common sense is so damn rare? My eyes are open. They don't deceive, Yet, I keep seeing things I can hardly believe. [Chorus] So I bite, bite till it hurts, Tongue bleeds red with every word, Hold back the flood behind my teeth, Watching them drown in their own deceit. Yeah, I bite, though it cuts me deep, Trying to stay civil while they stay asleep. Bite down to feel the pain, To quiet my flustered brain. Bite down. Bite down and bleed. Bite and bleed! [Echo] (Bleed, bleed, bleed) [Bridge] Every stifled cry and swallowed shout, Words burn within, but can't let them out. Would it change a thing if I let them fly, Or, is my silence just promoting the lies? [Chorus] So I bite, bite till it hurts, Tongue bleeds red with every word, Hold back the flood behind my teeth, Watching them drown in their own deceit. Yeah, I bite, though it cuts me deep, Trying to stay civil while they stay asleep. Bite down to feel the pain, To quiet my flustered brain. Bite down. Bite down and bleed. Bite and bleed! Bite down to feel the pain, To quiet my flustered brain. Bite down. Bite down and bleed. Bite and bleed! [Echo] (Bleed, bleed, bleed) Bite and bleed! [Outro] I know it's a fact. One day I’ll crack, and, The bloody truth will pour down, But until that day, I won’t make a sound. [END]
