Birdeatsbaby - The Trouble Lyrics
Honey, Sugar, Lover, EverBaby this one is for youAlcoholic, so catastrophicYou gave me something to doYou tie me up in a ball in a cup in a black CadillacIn the box of a JackIn a moment of truth in a mistaken youthI am tragically yours in a page in a bookSweetheart, my darling, slightly charmingWrap me in nettles and thornsPrecious letters, maybe it's betterIf you had never been bornYou come inside like a victory brideBut you're all dressed in crimson and blacked out your eyesAnd so exaggerated so much that you rip at the seamsAnd I tear out the dice on your lipsHeadache, staringToothache tearingEarthquake, bearingHow am I meant to believe…in someone quite like youI know once you loved me tooThe price you pay is criticalWhy did I stay? It's pitifulIncoherence, my disappearanceWhere did my dignity goDaytime nightmares- get your fair share?No, well I didn't think soYou slip away into slumber I lay and I crumble and payFor the price on your head and I hate to admitThat your conscience is clear when youKnow what you did and you won't she'd a tearShaking, burning, in-the-grave turningBurden your demons on meSeething, writhing, raging, cavingSee how I split into threeIvory runs as the night overcomesAnd I'm left with the cold and the darkAnd the numbness so unsympatheticI said no I meant itI pointlessly argue my case as defendantHeadache, staringToothache tearingEarthquake, bearingHow could you go make me bleed?On someone quite like youI know once you loved me tooBut the price you pay is criticalWhy did I stay?It's goddamn *****ing pitiful
