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
