Dynamite

(album: In Gods Body - 2017)

Dynamite, in your eyes
I've seen it twice
Across the night mmm
Across the night
What's your price?
I've seen it twice
What's the crime?
Dynamite
I've seen it twice
In your eyes mmm
What's the price
I've seen it twice
Across the night
Once or twice
Ms. Dynamite

Great, seems I got your attention
So I'mma bring all of the things you forget to mention
Your words slice like knives, still cut the tension
Past tense, we tried. Far to condensing for your taste
Your chase, my only fear you've seen worse days
If you could see through the word play
Wouldn't have fucked in the first place
I'm like please stop talking
Way to sober to make this less awkward
Words don't mean much
Your too passive and I'm too riled up
Started with kind words but they don't get nicer
Could have thought twice but
Shoulda woulda coulda's don't keep lights on
And I'm the provider
At least what I'm taught but
Men don't cry nah
Men don't feel...

Mm

Owl on the edge again
Trying to find release
The more you kill me with your words
The more I feel at peace
Oh of course you don't remember
I've heard the truth before
Naked lies are hard to witness
Fear I want you more

So I put my hand on to the pen
And turn the pen on to the paper
To clear every insecurity as I think
Over what to say first
Where do I begin the suffering
It just won't die
I'll count my blessings
Take a breath in and write
Write it out

Oedipus Oedipus
I need you more like my mama
I need you more like mine
Possessive or protective
Those with regrets are the first
To preach lessons. First forge weapons
First seek blessings, first to throw stones
The lonely sleep less. Ah just forget it
Can't waste words on ears that won't listen
I hang up, you call back
You hang up then get mad
Push my buttons you need attention
Your male friends a yes man he sounds pathetic
I'll say what I want I don't need permission
Do not beg do not need forgiveness
Do not shoot the witness
You said you love me how you found me
But tried to switch up everyone I kept around me
I'll leave my flaws by the door
Lip lock with logic and make sweet passion sense
To you

Dynamite, in your eyes
I've seen it twice
Across the night mmm
Across the night
What's your price?
I've seen it twice
What's the crime?
Dynamite
I've seen it twice
In your eyes mmm
What's the price
I've seen it twice
Across the night
Once or twice
Ms. Dynamite
