not harmless

I came clean and there you went
Stitching up every single seam I split
You wanna heal me, wanna trace the scars
Gonna light a flame for all the unsaved girls

Black tie on the floor
Paper-thin dress on a desk chair
Match wits, march you home
Cigarette breath sugar-spun voice
You can pull me aside, hold me like a wounded bird
But I am no prize, I am not harmless
We charmed the light into doing our work
But it was the dark we called beautiful
Ill teach you to cry in a crowded room
Ill teach you how to talk till your teeth come loose
You can pull me aside, hold me like a wounded bird
But I am no prize, I am not harmless

Tell me, tell me, tell me
Would it make you feel better now
If you tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me Im hysterical?

Match wits, bury my will
Time will knock you off quick, time will take you out
And Ill be the thief you forgot to chase
The bramble sprung back in the heros face
You can pull me aside, and Ill whisper my apologies

But I am no prize, I am not harmless
