Bite Back lyrics

You couldn't break me in the end... (oh no)

And such a freedom I enjoy

When you're deaf to the sounds you trust

If that was all you've got, my friend... (oh no)

Then set yourself to disappoint

Yeah...

Feels like I'm strapped down on this table... so tight

You've got me stuck to a razor's edge

And I'm trapped in a deadbolt glove

You stand to cut me or enable... oh no

And such a streak starts steading heads

And I live for the things I love

Sad, but maybe it's true

Push you back's what I'll do

And it's just enough

To keep you back one second longer

Take a little more than what I've got

It's all I have to please you

Break a little piece of what you want

Bite back the hand that feeds you

Remember when things seem so stable... you know that

I compromise just to appease

Yeah, you take but you take too much

If what you need's not seeming able... yeah, right

Then maybe it works when I leave

Yeah, you fake what you say you love

Sad, but maybe it's true

Push you back's what I'll do

And it's just enough

To keep you back one second longer

Take a little more than what I've got

It's all I have to please you

Break a little piece of what you want

Bite back the hand that feeds you

Take a little more than what I've got

It's all I have to please you

Break a little piece of what you want

Bite back the hand that feeds you

Move faster

I can't move enough

How much longer?

Is this long enough?

We can't be

And it won't even catch your attention

And it pains me so to mention

Sad, but maybe it's true

Push you back's what I'll do

And it's just enough

To keep you back one second longer

Take a little more than what I've got

It's all I have to please you

Break a little piece of what you want

Bite back the hand that feeds you

Take a little more than what I've got

It's all I have to please you

Break a little piece of what you want

Bite back the hand that feeds you

Take what I've got

It's all I have to please you

Break what you want

Bite back the hand that feeds you

Take what I've got

It's all I have to please you

Break what you want

Bite back the hand that feeds you
