ALICE MERTON – Lash Out (acoustic) | PULS Live Session

Alice Merton hat gleich mit ihrer allerersten Single “No Roots” einen Welthit gelandet – und das alles in Do-It-Yourself-Manier. Denn um den Song zu veröffentlichen, hat Alice Merton mit Paper Plane Records ihr eigenes Plattenlabel gegründet. Was folgte: Platinschallplatten, eine ausgiebige Tournee durch Europa und die USA und ein Auftritt bei Late-Night-Talker Jimmy Fallon. Mit ihrer Single “Lash Out” will Alice Merton die Erfolgsgeschichte nun weiterschreiben.

I can feel it on the back of my tongue All of the words getting trapped in my lungs Heavy like a stone, waiting for the river to run

I wanna lash out I wanna let it out ‘Cause I can feel it on the back of my tongue On the back of my tongue

Oh, hard to hold this fire inside me All I know, sometimes it’s frightening Hard to hold this fire inside me Oh, oh oh, it’s not really like me to lash out

I gotta let it out I wanna lash out I wanna lash out

I’ve got something to say, might start a riot Rip that tape from my mouth, I won’t be quiet ‘Cause everything is nothing ’til you realise it’s something you want

I wanna lash out I wanna let it out ‘Cause I can feel it on the back of my tongue On the back of my tongue

Oh, hard to hold this fire inside me All I know, sometimes it’s frightening Hard to hold this fire inside me Oh, oh oh, it’s not really like me to lash out I gotta let it out I wanna lash out I gotta let it out

I can’t be the cork, come out of the bottle I can’t be the cork, come out of the bottle I can’t be the cork, come out of the bottle I can’t be the cork, come out of the bottle

Lash out I wanna let it out ‘Cause I can feel it on the back of my tongue On the back of my tongue

Oh, hard to hold this fire inside me All I know, sometimes it’s frightening Hard to hold this fire inside me Oh, oh oh, it’s not really like me to lash out

I wanna let it out I wanna lash out I wanna let it out I gotta lash out
