Yeah, Yeah

This is a story of a girl broken-hearted

Messed up her head, she's so guarded (so guard, so guard)

Don't get me started, whoa

It's cause of you that I got this thick skin

I don't wanna let nobody in

All the pain just stayed in place

And I kept it all tucked away for so long, so long, so long, oh

But now

I just wanna yell, (I just wanna yell)

I just wanna throw it all in your face

It's silly that I've always felt this way

You'd never know (you'd never know)

I just wanna yell, (I just wanna yell)

You know that I can only take so much

And I dont wanna keep it bottled up (no more)

Anymore, anymore, anymore

Woah, woah, woah, I dont wanna keep it bottled up

I was there, hanging on by a string,

Trying to give you my everything

That's what they all sing, yeah

You don't know what you put me through

Trying so hard just to prove to you

That I got something to say

But I kept it all tucked away for so long, so long, so long

Oh, oh yeah

I just wanna yell, (I just wanna yell)

I just wanna throw it all in your face

It's silly that I've always felt this way

You'd never know (you'd never know)

I just wanna yell, (I just wanna yell)

You know that I can only take so much

And I don't wanna keep it bottled up (no more)

Anymore, anymore, anymore

Woah, woah, woah, I don't wanna keep it bottled up

Woah, woah, woah, I don't wanna keep it bottled up

I never talked about the way I really felt

You put my heart through hell, thought you knew me so well

But, uh-uh, just waiting for me to fail

But I'm doing the opposite and I can't wait to tell the whole world

You're the one you said would eat me up

Remember when you told me that I wasn't good enough?

And I started to believe you, I felt like giving up

Left me with a dream crushed and your empty words stuck to me

I didn't wanna ever feel like that again

So I locked up any kind of emotion, but

I got the keys and I'm ready now

Set the caged bird free, time to let it out

I just wanna yell (yell)

I just wanna throw it all in your face

It's silly that I've always felt this way

You'd never know (you'd never know)

I just wanna yell,

You know that I can only take so much

And I don't wanna keep it bottled up (no more)

Anymore, anymore

Woah, woah, woah, keep it bottled up, keep it bottled up

I don't wanna keep it bottled up, anymore

Woah, woah, woah

Woah, woah, woah

I dont wanna keep it bottled up, anymore, no more, no more
