ENVY ON THE COAST – TEMPER TEMPER

Temper, temper
I never wanted to be
Temper, temper
I never wanted to be
Mr., Mr.
I can’t hold it in.

Never, never
I had a feeling this would
Never, never
I had a feeling this would never leave,
I’ve got a wick to burn my skin.

Temper, temper
I never wanted to be
Temper, temper
I never wanted to be
Mr., Mr.
I can’t hold it in.

No…

Never, never
I had a feeling this would
Never, never
I had a feeling this would never leave,
I’ve got a wick to burn my skin.

So I bottled it up and kept the words to myself
And let the anger collect for a better day.
When the words are aged,
The war is waged,
And you’ll watch me blow.

I can be your powder keg.
If you can be my fuse.

Clever, clever
Give me a reason to be
Clever, clever
Give me a reason to be
Placing all my trust in your hands.

No…

Never, never
Don’t even fuck with me,
Never, never
I tell myself that I know,
But I’ll never know more than your name.

So I bottled it up and kept the words to myself
And let the anger collect for a better day.
When the words are aged,
The war is waged,
And you’ll watch me blow.

I can be your powder keg.
If you can be my fuse.

Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t worry doll,
I only kill him in my sleep.
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock at your door.
You know I will send him out to sea.

So I bottled it up and kept the words to myself
And let the anger collect for a better day.
When the words are aged,
The war is waged,
And you’ll watch me blow.

I can be your powder keg.
If you can be my fuse.

Temper, temper
I never wanted to be
Temper, temper
I never wanted to be
Mr., Mr.
I can’t hold it in.

Comments: This band has captivated me ~ and I whole-heartedly believe they’ll make it big someday in the music industry. They’re certainly underrated but that should change soon if they keep working hard. Their songs are just simply lovely. I’ll be keeping my eye on them from now on. ^^
