Bottled Up

Sometimes I laugh too loud Just to drown out the noise Put on a perfect face I don't give you a choice Oh I've got secrets I can't explain Smile through the thunder in the pouring rain And yet you see me dancing like nothing's wrong But these walls are wearing down All bottled up yeah it's hard to let it out Feel the pressure rising but I'm too proud to shout Holding back the waves though it's breaking me apart With a mask on my face and a cage on my heart I can't breathe No I can't breathe All bottled up Yeah I can't break free I'm the life of the party When I need to escape But I always wish you'd call me See I'm drowning this way Oh I've got secrets I can't explain Smile through the thunder in the pouring rain And yet you see me dancing like nothing's wrong But all my walls are coming down All bottled up yeah it's hard to let it out Feel the pressure rising but I'm too proud to shout Holding back the waves though it's breaking me apart With a mask on my face and a cage on my heart Would you catch me?

Oh I'm afraid of what I'd say Of what I'd do If I let my walls come down for You All bottled up yeah it's hard to let it out Feel the pressure rising but I'm too proud to shout Holding back the waves though it's breaking me apart With a mask on my face and a cage on my heart I can't breathe No I can't breathe All bottled up Yeah I can't break free If I could scream Oh I can't scream Maybe you'd finally see the real me
