Red simmerin', deep down in my soul
Ticking time bomb, 'bout to lose control
A word too sharp, a look the wrong way
Fuses are lit, gonna burn all day
Temper like a tempest, a hurricane inside
Gonna blow this whole thing, wide open and wide
Can't hold it back, gotta let it fly
This demon in my pocket, can't be denied
Words like razors, tearin' at the seams
Wish I could rewind, escape these bad dreams
Leave the wreckage behind, start anew
But the fire's burnin', baby, what can I do?
Temper like a tempest, a hurricane inside
Gonna blow this whole thing, wide open and wide
Can't hold it back, gotta let it fly
This demon in my pocket, can't be denied
Maybe someday, I'll learn to tame the beast
But for now I'm shackled, leashed and unreleased
Maybe someday, I'll learn to tame the beast
But for now I'm shackled, leashed and unreleased
Temper like a tempest, a hurricane inside
Gonna blow this whole thing, wide open and wide
Can't hold it back, gotta let it fly
This demon in my pocket, can't be denied
Yeah, this temper of mine, it's a battle I fight
Every single day, with all my might
