๐ Lyrics
Scared of the dark
Hugging your clothes
I want you to be happy
Don't want you to know
What would you say to your little girl?
Now that they're all that is wrong with the world
Words from Nick Drake start to make sense
The paint's getting dry but you still hate your fence
Ooo, oo, oo, oo-oo
Oo-oo
Ooo, oo-oo
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
The first days were hard
I learned to love tears
Was told I was brave and was bottling for years
Just one more night
I made love with a ghost
I recognise those hands, I was touching myself
So I cut my hair, then downed a drink
I turned up the noise so I don't have to think
Ooo, oo, oo, oo-oo
Oo-oo
Ooo, oo, oo
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Now I walk home, alone in the streets
They used be ours and they used to taste sweet
A cloth to my face, but I'm never clean
Validate me 'til I'm all that you say
What would I do for a little resolve?
With these Taurus skies I will wait 'til I'm old
Ooo, oo, oo, oo-oo
Oo-oo
Oo, oo-ooo
Oo, oo-ooo
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hold me a little tighter and no one will know
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hold me a little tighter and no one will know
I decided I can't live a lie
So I put on the makeup you didn't like
And I fell in love
I fell in love once again
So leave me
Leave me for your shitty friends
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hold me a little tighter and no one will know
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and no one will know
Hugging your clothes
I want you to be happy
Don't want you to know
What would you say to your little girl?
Now that they're all that is wrong with the world
Words from Nick Drake start to make sense
The paint's getting dry but you still hate your fence
Ooo, oo, oo, oo-oo
Oo-oo
Ooo, oo-oo
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
The first days were hard
I learned to love tears
Was told I was brave and was bottling for years
Just one more night
I made love with a ghost
I recognise those hands, I was touching myself
So I cut my hair, then downed a drink
I turned up the noise so I don't have to think
Ooo, oo, oo, oo-oo
Oo-oo
Ooo, oo, oo
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Now I walk home, alone in the streets
They used be ours and they used to taste sweet
A cloth to my face, but I'm never clean

Ooo, oo, oo, oo-oo
Oo-oo
Oo, oo-ooo
Oo, oo-ooo
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hold me a little tighter and no one will know
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hold me a little tighter and no one will know

Leave me for your shitty friends
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hold me a little tighter and no one will know
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and put on a show
Take me, break me
Hang me like Jesus and no one will know
