Hush

I feel so weak when you speak my name

My Achilles' heel is the closeness that it brings

So maybe just hush

Say that I’m fed up with simple things

Say I crave depth but I’m drowning underneath

I’m begging you hush

This attention hits so different

It cuts through sense and strangles reason

Cupid shoots to kill, he takes no prisoners

I get away with murder when he’s in it

I’m a crossfire killer

Silent like your liquor

Snake oil pusher

Pour me up in the crystal

Not quite a gin & tonic, I’ll make you drink a little

I’ll make you sick and sell the medicine to fix it to you

It feels like blind love, I fit the shape of

These are LA roses, You parade em

I paint the petals black, I make you waste em

I make you waste em

I feel so weak when you speak my name

My Achilles heal is the closeness that it brings

So maybe just hush

Say that I’m fed up with simple things

Say I crave depth but I’m drowning underneath

I’m begging you hush

Like a getaway car always running

Like a Trojan horse smuggle my heart in

Like a house of cards ready to fall I

Wait for your catch

I speak in wildfires, I breathe the flames

You get burned up, you deserve greener things

I hope you’re flourishing, I’m not the rain

I’m what gets washed away

In the darkest recesses of my mind

I’ll wish something kept you away

Our red and blue paints blend too well

Guess oil and water don’t mix quite like sinners and saints
