SARA BAREILLES lyrics : "Machine Gun"

Tell me off in a letter
Completely ignore me
Getting high off of saying

Why you don't adore me?

Baby, please, I'm well versed

In how I might be cursed
I don't need it articulated


Stand in line wasting
All of your time just to hate me
Every dime gone to ways

You can find that might bait me

And drag me down, sight set proudly

Bring me to the ground see
You love to be somebody's enemy


Maybe nobody loved you when you were young
Maybe, boy, when you cry, nobody ever comes
Will you try it once?

Give up the machine gun
Machine gun


Locked and loaded
You're practically floating away now
In your fortress you feel like

You're more or less safe now

But let me say I don't mean harm

Oh, but, baby, you'd be charming if you'd come undone
Get back where you started from


Maybe nobody loved you when you were young
Maybe, boy, when you cry, nobody ever comes
Will you try it once?

Give up the machine gun
Machine gun


Never mind how you've rationed your time
And the battle is underway
Maybe times are gonna change

Don't just hide in the silence behind

What you've really been trying to say

What a skill, baby, aiming to kill me
With words you don't mean


Maybe nobody loved you when you were young
Maybe, boy, when you cry, nobody ever comes
Will you try it once?

Give up the machine gun

Will you try it once?

Give up the machine gun
Will you try it once?
Give up the machine gun

Machine gun
