You bottle it up
Because you know
That no one will listen
And no one will care
You know that if you try
To open up
You'll only be rejected
You'll only be hurt
So you keep it inside
And let everything slide
You take it out on others
And you let it out in anger
No one knows why you get so pissed off
Maybe if they'd listen
Maybe if they'd care
Then you would tell them the truth
You could let it all out
With tears
And whispered confessions
But you know better
You know not to be so careless
You know not to slip up
And it hurts you
But you bottle it up
Because you know
There's no point in trying
When they won't understand
They won't care
And you know that
So you'll finally let go
You have no hope
Because no one will listen
You don't know how to cope
So you bottle it up
And it kills you
It slowly kills you
But you already knew that
And your okay with that
So you bottle it up
Because you know
That one day
You won't be able to take it anymore
And you'll let go
