I let the beast in too soon; I don't know how to live
Without my hand on his throat; I fight him always and still
Oh darling, it's so sweet, you think you know how crazy
How crazy I am
You say you don't spook easy; you won't go, but I know
And I pray that you will
Fast as you can, baby run free yourself of me
Fast as you can
I may be soft in your palm but I'll soon grow
Hungry for a fight and I will not let you win
My pretty mouth will frame the phrases that will
Disprove your faith in man
So if you catch me trying to find my way into your
Heart from under your skin
Fast as you can, baby scratch me out, free yourself
Fast as you can
Fast as you can, baby scratch me out, free yourself
Fast as you can
Sometimes my mind don't shake and shift
But most of the time, it does
And I get to the place where I'm begging for a lift
Or I'll drown in the wonders and the was
And I'll be your girl, if you say it's a gift
And you give me some more of your drugs
Yeah, I'll be your pet, if you just tell me it's a gift
'Cause I'm tired of whys, choking on whys,
Just need a little because, because
I let the beast in and then
I even tried forgiving him, but it's too soon
So I'll fight again, again, again, again, again.
And for a little while more, I'll soar the
Uneven wind, complain and blame
The sterile land
But if you're getting any bright ideas, quiet dear
I'm blooming within
Fast as you can, baby wait watch me, I'll be out
Fast as I can, maybe late but at least about
Fast as you can leave me, let this thing
Run its route
Fast as you can
Here's another speech you wish I'd swallow
Another cue for you to fold your ears
Another train of thought too hard to follow
Chugging along to the song that belongs to
The shifting of gears
Please forgive me for my distance
The pain is the evident in my existence
Please forgive me for my distance
The shame is manifest in my resistance
To your love, to your love, to your love
I would've warned you, but really, what's the point?
Caution could but rarely ever helps
Don't be down when my demeanor tends to disappoint
It's hard enough even trying to be civil to myself
Please forgive me for my distance
The pain is evident in my existence
Please forgive me for my distance
The shame is manifest in my resistance
to your love love, to your love, to your love
My derring-do allows me to dance the rigadoon
Around you
But by the time I'm close to you, I lose
My desideratum and now you, so
Now you have it, so baby tell me what's the word?
Am I your gal, or should I get out of town?
I just need to be reassured
Do you just deal it out, or can you deal with
What I lay down?
Please forgive me, for my distance
The pain is evident in my existence
Please forgive me for my distance
The shame is manifest in my resistance
To your love, to your love, to your love
If I'm butter - if I'm butter-
If I'm butter, then he's a hot knife,
he makes my heart a cinemascope,
he's showing the dancing bird of paradise.
If I'm butter - if I'm butter-
If I'm butter, then he's a hot knife,
he makes my heart a cinemascope,
he's showing the dancing bird of paradise.
He excites me
Must be like a genesis of rhythm
I get feisty
Whenever I'm with him
If I'm butter - if I'm butter-
If I’m butter, then he's a hot knife,
he makes my heart a cinemascope,
he's showing the dancing bird of paradise
I'm a hot knife- if I'm a hot knife-
I'm a hot knife if he's a pad of butter.
If I get a chance, I'm gonna show him that
he's never gonna need- never need another.
I'm a hot knife- if I'm a hot knife-
I'm a hot knife if he's a pad of butter
If I get a chance, I'm gonna show him that
he's never gonna need- never need another.
(And you can, and you can, and you can wild up around me)

I Just Want to Feel Everything
