Alice Merton - Lash Out

I can feel it on the back of my tongue
All of the words, getting trapped in my lungs
Heavy like a stone, waiting for the river to run

I wanna lash out!
I wanna let it out!
'Cause I can feel it on the back of my tongue
On the back of my tongue, oh, oh, oh

Oh, hard to hold
This fire inside me
Oh, I know
sometimes it’s frightening
Hard to hold
This fire inside me
Oh, o-oh
It’s not really like me
To lash out!
I gotta let it out!
I wanna lash out!
I wanna lash out!

I've got something to say
Might start a riot
Rip that tape from my mouth
I won’t be quiet
Cause everything is nothing
Till you realise it’s something you want

I wanna lash out!
I wanna let it out!
'Cause I can feel it on the back of my tongue
On the back of my tongue, oh, oh, oh

Oh, hard to hold
This fire inside me
Oh, I know
sometimes it’s frightening
Hard to hold
This fire inside me
Oh, o-oh
It’s not really like met
To lash out!
I gotta let it out!
I wanna lash out!
I gotta let it out!

I can't be the cork, come out of the bottle
I can't be the cork, come out of the bottle
I can't be the cork, come out of the bottle
I can't be the cork, come out of the bottle
Lash out!
I wanna let it out!

'Cause I can feel it on the back of my tongue
On the back of my tongue, oh, oh, oh

Oh, hard to hold
This fire inside me
Oh, I know
sometimes it’s frightening
Hard to hold
This fire inside me
Oh, o-oh
It’s not really like me
To lash out!
I wanna let it out!
I wanna lash out!
I wanna let it out!
I gotta lash out!
