Bite Back

The All-American Rejects

Transposer:

[Verse 1] You couldn’t break me in the end (Oh no) And such a freedom I enjoy When you’re deaf to the sounds you trust If that was all you’ve got my friend (Oh no) Then set yourself to disappoint (Yeah) [Interlude] [Verse 2] Feels like I’m strapped down on this table (So tight) You’ve got me stuck to a razor’s edge And I’m trapped in a deadbolt glove You stand to cut me you’re unable (Oh no) And such a streak starts steadying hands And I live for the things I love [Pre-Chorus] Sad but maybe it’s true Push you back’s what I’ll do And it’s just enough To keep you back one second longer [Chorus] Take a little more than what I’ve got It’s all I have to please you Break a little piece of what you want Bite back the hand that feeds you [Verse 3] Remember when things seemed so stable (You know that) I compromised just to appease Yeah you take but you take too much If what you need’s not seeming able (Yeah right) Then maybe it works when I leave Yeah you fake what you say you love [Pre-Chorus] Sad but maybe it’s true Push you back’s what I’ll do And it’s just enough To keep you back one second longer [Chorus] Take a little more than what I’ve got It’s all I have to please you Break a little piece of what you want Bite back the hand that feeds you Take a little more than what I’ve got It’s all I have to please you Break a little piece of what you want Bite back the hand that feeds you [Bridge] Move faster I can’t move enough How much longer? Is this long enough? We can’t be and it won’t Even catch your attention And it pains me so to mention [Solo] [Pre-Chorus] Sad but maybe it’s true Push you back’s what I’ll do And it’s just enough To keep you back one second longer [Chorus] Take a little more than what I’ve got It’s all I have to please you Break a little piece of what you want Bite back the hand that feeds you Take a little more than what I’ve got It’s all I have to please you Break a little piece of what you want Bite back the hand that feeds you [Outro] (Take what I’ve got) It’s all I have to please you (Break what you want) Bite back the hand that feeds you (Take what I’ve got) It’s all I have to please you (Break what you want) Bite back the hand that feeds you

Cette chanson évoque un sentiment de résistance face à des gens qui prennent trop et ne donnent pas en retour. L’artiste exprime une lutte personnelle, un désir de reprendre le contrôle malgré les pressions et les attentes des autres. On ressent une envie de se libérer de l'emprise de ceux qui ne semblent pas apprécier ce qu'on fait pour eux. Dans un contexte plus large, cela peut faire écho à des relations toxiques, où l'on se sent coincé et obligé de se conformer pour plaire. La lutte pour l’affirmation de soi et le refus de se laisser briser est centrale dans le propos. Cette dynamique est particulièrement pertinente dans des situations où l'équilibre se rompt et où une prise de conscience devient nécessaire.
