[Verse 1] |
|
Maybe we could start over |
|
Or get back to the beginning at least |
|
Where you said |
|
"Be careful what you wish for |
|
You just might get |
|
(You just might get what you deserve) |
|
What you need" |
|
When you drag your nails across my skin |
|
Sometimes it feels like surgery |
|
When you drag your nails across my skin |
|
Sometimes it feels like |
|
[Chorus 1] |
|
I want to deconstruct you slowly |
|
I want to tear you apart |
|
Piece by brilliant piece [x2] |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
And when I'm staring at the water |
|
I'm only thinking about the shadows underneath |
|
I fumble and fail to find the perfect teeth |
|
If my arms could ever reach that key |
|
But the grooves across the blade don't fit, don't fit to anything |
|
When you drag your nails across my skin |
|
Sometimes it feels like |
|
[Chorus 2] |
|
I want to deconstruct you slowly |
|
I want to tear you apart |
|
Piece by brilliant piece [x2] |
|
Find the words to remind you slowly |
|
This is what we need |
|
Piece by brilliant piece [x2] |
|
[Bridge] |
|
How long is too long exactly? [x2] |
|
If the clock hands are stuck on repeat |
|
I'll give you my hand so you won't drown |
|
But I can't stick around for you to drag me down |
|
I want to deconstruct you slowly |
|
I want to tear you apart |
|
Piece by brilliant piece |
|
Piece by brilliant |
|
[Outro] |
|
I'll watch you deconstruct me slowly |
|
I'll watch you tear me apart |
|
Piece by brilliant piece [x2] |
|
Find the words to remind me slowly |
|
This is what I need |
|
Piece by brilliant piece [x2] |
