Lyrics Tender – Bottled Up
Text:
Bottled up
Won’t talk about it
Nobody needs to know
Nobody needs to know
Believe me, I’ve tried
Nobody needs to know
Nobody needs to know
Always your own
You were stronger than me
You wrapped your arms around me
But you never understand
Feel so alone
Standing in a crowded place
What I’d give to know their names and how they feel
Like a wave crashing over me
I watch the scene, nothing holding me
You want a piece of money but the best from me
Must stay beyond the gas pedal
Like the turn to before the break
My old thoughts they pull the chain
Beyond violence I think what’s at stake
My own hands won’t give or take enough
Bottled up
Won’t talk about it
Nobody needs to know
Nobody needs to know
Between me and my mind
Believe me, I’ve tried
Nobody needs to know
Feel such a waste
Better things in an empty case
But that, that look you’ve got on your face
Tells me everything I need to know
That I hold the door
You’ll be carrying things to the car, tell me
Tell me something you won’t get too far
Before you come home back to me
Like a wave crashing over me
I watch the scene, nothing holding me
You want a piece of money but the best from me
Must stay beyond the gas pedal
Like the turn to before the break
My old thoughts they pull the chain
Beyond violence I think what’s at stake
My own hands won’t give or take enough
Bottled up
Won’t talk about it
Nobody needs to know
Nobody needs to know
Between me and my mind
Believe me, I’ve tried
Nobody needs to know
Nobody needs to know
Like a wave crashing over me
I watch the scene, nothing holding me
You want a piece of money but the best from me
Must stay beyond the gas pedal
Like the turn to before the break
My old thoughts they pull the chain
Beyond violence I think what’s at stake
My own hands won’t give or take enough
