"Portrait Of A Dead Girl" lyrics
"Portrait Of A Dead Girl"
When you laid like a wolf
With your head on my lap
I felt like one of those portraits
Of women protected by a beast on a chain
They look so safe
A guard dog there just for her
If only she know that with one wrong move
He'll turn around and tear off her hands
And I wish you had given me the courtesy
Of ripping out my throat
And I wish that I let you have the dignity
Of letting me go
I break apart without your arms
The smell of soap and petrol smarts
Let me feed you to my friends
Over and over again
Let my last words be our last dance
I'd die for you no questions asked
If anyone could kill me
It probably would be you
He's got letters on his fist
R-I-D-E
A triumph on his hips
He looks like one of those film stars
With a blow-up doll and a BB gun
And I wish you had given me the courtesy
Of staying one more night
And I wish that I had the guts
The dignity
To put up a fight
I break apart without your arms
The smell of soap and petrol smarts
Let me feed you to my friends
Over and over again
Let my last words be our last dance
I'd die for you no questions asked
If anyone could kill me
It probably would be you
Don't have the strength to pin me down
The time I wasted in your mouth
Waves that crash against your chest
Over and over again
I kissed your eyes
And framed your teeth
As you crawl back into the sea
Oh, anyone could kill me
And I'd never ever let it be you

The Libertines - "Run Run Run" It's a lifelong project of a life on the lash
I forgotten how to care but I'll remember for cash
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Light the fuse, sing the blues, I can die if I want to
Tonight...
CMAT - "Whatever's Inconvenient" I can always smell it comin'
Like the grease upon your mullet
I knew you'd ruin me the minute
Had a dream and you were in it
Just a dentist, you and I
'Cause your crown of boys are mean
And it reeks...
Chappell Roan - "After Midnight" My mama said nothing good happens
When it's late and you're dancing alone
She's in my head saying it's not attractive
Wearing that dress and red lipstick
This is what I wanted, this is what I like...
Claud - "Soft Spot" This sounds kinda strange I thought
I saw you at a party but
I finally got close it wasn't you
I know we don't talk right now
But if I saw you I'd sit down
And ask about your afternoon
You made it...
English Teacher - "Nearly Daffodils" Mostly it feels like a waste
So much laughter un-canned
I'd forgotten the taste
Don't make me go back
All the plans we tiptoed around
In quiet hours, Daffodil buds
There is a reason
The first nine...
