Keep Sweet

Lyrics for Keep Sweet

I let it die in a heat wave I see a passage in my mind Where crooked teeth and hungry eyes Cannot latch onto me when I walk alone But violent little pieces hide like honey bees inside their hive Insidious, they rot alive and I know they follow me like a ghost I always knew there was a reason My innocence was a keepsake worn around my neck Shake my head 'til I see straight Make my mind so placid, so my body can go easy You'll never take that part of me I felt it die in a heat wave (in a heat wave) Devour little pieces of my heart when you need them I wanna tear it out now when it's beating I wanna watch it bleed out with no feeling So I keep sweet to keep safe, temperate in a heat wave I wanna tear it out now when it's beating I wanna watch it bleed out with no feeling So suddenly, it feels like I woke from a dream And everything that happened to me Was a talisman I threw like a stone You constantly infantilize, passionless in a passive life Entitlement just to pull out every seam Devour little pieces of my heart when you need them I wanna tear it out now when it's beating I wanna watch it bleed out with no feeling So I keep sweet to keep safe, temperate in a heat wave I wanna tear it out now when it's beating I wanna watch it bleed out with no feeling I always knew there was a reason My innocence was a keepsake You'll never take that part of me I felt it die in a heat wave Devour into pieces of my heart when you need them So I keep sweet to keep safe, temperate in a heat wave I wanna tear it out now when it's beating I wanna watch it bleed out with no feeling
