Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It builds like thunder, waiting to break,

A restless ghost I can’t escape.

I bite my tongue, but it bites back,

Swallowed rage turning my heart black.

[Pre-Chorus]

Where do I put it when there’s no way out

When the fire inside me, causes doubt

[Chorus]

There’s lots of anger with no place to put it,

Nowhere to run, no way to lose it.

Screaming inside cause nobody knew it.

We bury it deep, pretend we outgrew it

Where does it go when we push it down

Does it turn into silence, or come around

We keep it inside, but it’s breaking through,

Somebody tell me—what do you do

[Verse 2]

A mother cries but swallows the sound,

A father drowns in a bottle he found.

Children learn from the silence they see,

That pain has a home where no one can breathe.

[Pre-Chorus]

But where does it go when the tears turn to stone

When the voices we need get buried alone

[Chorus]

There’s lots of anger with no place to put it,

Nowhere to run, no way to lose it.

Screaming inside cause nobody saw it.

We bury it deep, pretend we outgrew it

Where does it go when we push it down

Does it turn into silence, and come around

We keep it inside, but it’s breaking through,

Somebody tell me—what do you do

[Verse 3]

I keep it quiet, I keep it small,

A spark behind a prison wall.

Smile so easy, nod my head,

But there’s a storm behind what’s left unsaid.

[Pre-Chorus]

Does it turn into thunder, does it turn into rain

Does it carve out a canyon or drown in the pain

[Chorus]

There’s lots of anger with no place to put it,

Nowhere to run, no way to lose it.

Screaming inside cause nobody saw it.

We bury it deep, pretend we outgrew it

Where does it go when we push it down

Does it turn into silence, and come around

We keep it inside, but it’s breaking through,

Somebody tell me—what do you do

[Verse 4]

I see it in you, I feel it in me,

A slow-burning fire, a restless sea.

Words left unspoken, fists held tight,

Holding back hurricanes deep in the night.

[Pre-Chorus]

But where does it go when there's no one to hear

When the weight of the fire just burns in the mirror

[Chorus]

There’s lots of anger with no place to put it,

Nowhere to run, no way to lose it.

Screaming inside cause nobody saw it.

We bury it deep, pretend we outgrew it

Where does it go when we push it down

Does it turn into silence, and come around

We keep it inside, but it’s breaking through,

Somebody tell me—what do you do

[Verse 5]

Push it down, lock the door,

Still it’s crawling through the floor.

Hold my breath, count to ten,

But here it comes back again.

[Pre-Chorus]

I hear it whisper, I feel it shake,

Like a fault line ready to break.

[Bridge]

Maybe it waits for a voice to be found,

For someone to scream, or make a sound—

But if we keep hiding what should be set free,

Who do we become Who will we be

What if I scream, what if I fight

Would I be wrong or would I be right

What if this anger is trying to show,

That some things are meant to explode

[Outro]

There’s lots of anger, I won’t let it win,

But it’s still living beneath my skin.

We’ll set it free where the truth can be spoken,

Turn it to love before we are broken.

[Chorus]

There’s lots of anger with no place to put it,

Nowhere to run, no way to lose it.

Screaming inside cause nobody saw it.

We bury it deep, pretend we outgrew it

Where does it go when we push it down

Does it turn into silence, and come around

We keep it inside, but it’s breaking through,

Somebody tell me—what do you do
