Violently

Edie Carey


No, no I can't be trusted 
Driving out here alone 
With these thoughts 
'Cause my brakes are busted 
And the engine's shot 

The heat serves to keep you soft 
So I can mold you 
And you won't crack 
But I don't know how to 
Turn this thing off 
And I don't think I can take it back 
No I don't think I can take it back 

I'll just make you braver 
Than you are 
I will paint your eyes 
A prettier green 
I will watch you fall 
Violently for me? 

I took you to bed with authority 
I replay that kiss by the hotel desk 
'Til the tape just melts 
Runs all over me 
And we're in the same sticky mess 

Maybe it's not you that I need 
Maybe just your picture is enough 
Maybe you're as mine as you're ever gonna be 
And maybe that's all I need of love 
Yeah, maybe that's all I needed 

'Cause I can make you 
Braver than you are 
I will paint your eyes 
A prettier green 
I will watch you fall 
Violently 
Violently
