about

Bexley's "Bite My Tongue"is an impressively catchy song that takes you on a fast paced ride, leaving the listener wishing it hadn't ended. The songs exudes frustration and angst, musically tied together with ear hooking riffs and quirky lead guitars.

"Bite My Tongue is about wanting to speak your mind even in situations where it might make matters worse, just so you can be heard. But when you do speak your mind it falls on deaf ears, so really it's not worth your breath. Better off to just bite your tongue no matter how frustrating that is.
Unless you like chaos, and I suppose some people do..." - Bexley

lyrics

I think I get it from my father
My keen ability to make things even harder, than they were before I stepped onto the scene, make you listen to me

Sometimes I think that I know what’s best
But all I seem to do is cause more civil unrest
What good is fighting if it gets you nowhere, keep my mouth shut that’s fair

But it’s getting harder
It’s getting harder
It’s getting harder

I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I wanna scream my lungs out but I won’t
(I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue )
You think that I’m the problem but I’m not
(I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue )

Bang bang! On a broken door
You think I owe you more
But I don’t owe you nothing
Don’t hang all your words on me
I’m not society. I’m not the reason you’re angered

But it’s getting harder
It’s getting harder
It’s getting harder

I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I wanna scream my lungs out but I won’t
(I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue )
You think that I’m the problem but I’m not
(I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue )

I’ll just bite my tongue
There’s no battles won
I’ll just keep a straight face
While you lie through your teeth
I’ll just bite my tongue

I wish I didn’t care
I’m at the end I swear
Cuz I’m dying inside
I’m so tired of the lying
You don’t deserve me
But my blood won’t stop boiling

I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue
I guess I’ll bite my tongue
