Once Bitten Lyrics by Whale Bones

Island Fire

2018

Say what's on your mind
While I say nothing at all
I don't feel very friendly
I tread lightly through your halls
I passed up your anger
Morality flawed
And now I feel like a stranger
I don't feel any love at all

Would you listen?

Because I've been trying to speak with reason
And I've been trying to show you truth
But is that really what you want at all?
And while I'm trying to be better
Are you holding up your end?
Because I don't think you are

Feel the light
Oh how can you say it's wrong?
I have always shown you that you belong

Selfless in tongue
But you take what you want
The rocks that you've thrown
Avoiding your own
Fearful suppression
Flourished my aggression
I'm not going to hold
I won't anymore

I'm scared of being alone
But I don't buy this unconditional tone
Can't defy you
A cycle of fear and control
You can say anything
But would you listen to me at all?
