Intro:
Em X4
Verse:
Em
There's a pistol on the paper from last time we talked
Em
I throw her in a field and tell her to speak It's a threat with our clothes off
Em
Boiling my blood til it's bubbling under the skin of my thighs, its' love
Em
But you would never think that if you were looking at it from above
Em
She's clothed in black egg whites hair to the floor that's weighed with water
Em
She smiles at me like l'm camera she's a shadow that's mimicking me slightly wrong
Em
For her, I'd attach a Ford Bronco 1970 at my hip and jump into the sea
Em
And when I meet her at the bottom I'd let her do anything to me
Chorus:
Em
I put a pen to paper like putting a gun to my head
C Am
No human body permitted to treat me the way I beg
Em
I beg her to, she arched and broke her back in my open skin
C Am
The only one who can kill me with permission
[Post-chorus]
Em
Em
And honey that's all I was made for, all I was meant to do was
I'm a microphone for all her clogged words to comb through
Em
And honey that's all I was made for, all I was meant to do was
I'm just something, something made for you
Verse:
Em
I put a pen to paper, I hold her like she's a gun
Em
And she comes into me like water into your shoes
Em
And you can hide but you can't run
Em
Ooh
Em
Playing quiet on the cassette, using silence like a threat
Chorus:
Em
I put a pen to paper like putting a gun to my head
C Am
No human body permitted to treat me the way I beg
Em
I beg her to, she arched and broke her back in my open skin
C Am
The only one who can kill me with permission
Outro:
Em
And she's the only one that keeps me terrified to die
Am
That someday somehow somewhere the ink in her eyes will dry
Em
And everything I never said is only six feet away
C
Am
All the unwritten songs humming static in her ribcage
Em
And when her work is complete, her masterpiece on a stage
C
Am
You will clap for her, for the mess of me she's made
Em
And when her work is complete, her masterpiece on a stage
Am
You will clap for her, for the mess of me she's made
Em
G
And honey that's all I was made for, all I was meant to do was
C
Am
I'm just something, something made for you
Em
G
And honey that's all I was made for, all I was meant to do was
Am
Em
I'm just something, something made for vou.
