Bite My Tongue
Silent Suffering: Biting Words for Unrequited Love
Lyrics
Why do I feel this way
Expressing confusion or emotional distress
To you it couldn't be less
Indicating a perceived lack of concern from the person addressed
Wishing it wasn’t real
Desire for the situation to be unreal or not happening
I’m just creating a mess
Acknowledging personal responsibility for a chaotic situation
Keep on doing these things
Continuing actions that lead to remorse
That I come to regret
Expressing regret for past actions
I’ll bite my tongue 'til it bleeds
Willingness to endure suffering in silence
Cuz you don’t care about me
Belief that the person addressed lacks concern or empathy
Oh you don’t care about me
Reiteration of the perceived lack of care from the person
You know that I’d forgive you
Recognition of the ability to forgive despite ongoing issues
I seem to be forgetful now
Acknowledgment of forgetfulness or overlooking past actions
Everything that we went through
Reflecting on shared experiences with the person
Just trying to get to you somehow
Attempting to reconnect or bridge a gap
Why do I feel this way
Reiteration of emotional confusion or distress
To you this couldn't be less
Repeating the perception of indifference from the person
Wishing it wasn’t real
Expressing a desire for the situation to be different
I’m just creating a mess
Acknowledging personal responsibility for ongoing chaos
Keep on doing these things that I come to regret
Continuing actions with anticipated regret
I’ll bite my tongue 'til it bleeds
Willingness to endure emotional pain without expression
Cuz you don’t care about me
Reiteration of the belief in the person's lack of care
Oh you don’t care
Repeating the assertion of the person's indifference
Why don’t care about me
Questioning the lack of care or concern from the person
