Lash Out - Alice Merton

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 hard to hold this fire inside me

All I know sometimes it's frightening

Hard to hold this fire inside me

Oh oh oh it's not really like me to lash out

I gotta let it out

I wanna lash out

I wanna lash out

I got something to say might start a riot

Rip that tape from my mouth I won't be quiet

'Cause everything is nothing

'Til 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 hard to hold this fire inside me

All I know sometimes it's frightening

Hard to hold this fire inside me

Oh oh oh it's not really like me 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 hard to hold this fire inside me

All I know sometimes it's frightening

Hard to hold this fire inside me

Oh oh 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
