  • Bottle up and explode over and over
    Keep the troublemaker below
    Put it away and check out for the day
    In for a round of overexposure
    The thing mother nature provides
    To get up and go
    Bottle up and explode, seeing stars surrounding you
    Red white and blue

    You look at him like you've never known him
    But I know for a fact that you have
    The last time you cried
    Who'd you think was inside?
    Thinking that you were about to come over
    But I'm tired now of waiting for you
    You never show
    Bottle up and go, if you're gonna hide, it's up to you
    I'm coming through

    Bottle up and go
    I can make it outside
    I'll get through
    Becoming you
    Becoming you
    Becoming you Writer/s: Steven Paul Smith
