"Domestic Bliss" lyrics
"Domestic Bliss"
I see the bruise, I see the truth
I see what he's been doin' to you
Blood on the shoes, what's his excuse?
He say he doin' some new kung fu
You always use his bullshit excuse
But I see what he's been doin' to you
Why'd you put up with that shit?
Why'd you go back for that kiss?
Maybe it tastes like him when you got tears in your lips
Why'd you put up with that shit?
Why don't we pack and leave this?
Why do you smile when he cries?
Why do you cry when he wins?
Fight for me
We can leave, I'm beggin'
Please, on my, on my knees
Go to Hawaii
Fight for me
Said we can leave, I'm beggin'
Please, on my, on my knees
Hawa-Hawaii
He got balloons
New flowers too
Last one's dyin' in your bedroom
He's squeezin' you
Blame, blaming you
Mama just usin' her red perfume
Domestic bliss
I know how bad you wanted it
Why'd you put up with that shit?
Why'd you go back for that kiss?
Maybe it tastes like him when you got tears in your lips
Why'd you put up with that shit?
Why don't we pack and leave this?
Why do you smile when he cries?
Why do you cry when he wins?
Fight for me
We can leave, I'm beggin'
Please, on my, on my knees
Go to Hawaii
Fight for me
Said we can leave, I'm beggin'
Please, on my, on my knees
Hawa-Hawaii
My God, I'll be right in
A trickle of lightning
I knew before I heard
I felt in my skin
My God, I'll be right in
A trickle of lightning
I knew before I heard
I felt in my skin
Fight for me
We can leave, I'm beggin'
Please, on my, on my knees
Go to Hawaii
Fight for me
Said we can leave, I'm beggin'
Please, on my, on my knees
Hawa-Hawaii

Dave Bayley told NME about "Domestic Bliss", "It was one of the toughest to write because it didn't feel like my story to tell, but it also felt like a story that needed to be told. At the moment, in the current climate where domestic violence has risen so dramatically under lockdown, it's a topic that feels more important than ever to talk about."
Speaking with YorkshirePost.co.uk, Dave Bayley explained his attitude towards the topic of this song by saying, "You don't really want to remember that kind of thing, so digging it up was really tough. Trying to remember how you felt and also feeling that you wish you'd been able to do something but being too young to really comprehend what was going on. It's a tricky thing to re-live, domestic violence."

Son Lux - "Let Me Follow" You can break, throw yourself away
Leave it behind, we come undone
And if you need to, you can break me too
You can disappear
Please just take me with you when you go

Declan McKenna - "Why Do You Feel So Down" I can't speak and I can't listen
And everyone is a curse or something worse
What can I say to the kid that made you
Complaining like you were made to
When you hate every god I pray to
So don't lie...
HUNNY - "Televised" Take a Tylenol, took long enough to get back here, crying
Cheap tricks and fortune in a flash
She hits rewind to make it last, crying

Oh, she's so bright...
Saint Motel - "A Good Song Never Dies" Stop, now let's begin
You're in too deep to go back again
Cash, it's pay-to-play
You want more hits than a lemonade
No, you don't own me
You don't even know me
Who, this vagabond
With a toop hop...
