Carpet Ride - Buttercup lyrics

rate me

Verse 1)

Lying sick

On a ship

With the water pouring in

Should I go down with it?

Or find a piece of mind

In a world that's so unkind

Unlike my own

But I'd rather stay than go

(Verse 2)

So tough shit

Predicaments

Always come when were forbidden from the things we love the most

Her eyes are closed

I am alone

In present time but who knows

I can't read my own mind because

(Chorus)

Every now and then I'll

Start to fall in love

You can call me buttercup

I'll smile

Steer you in the wrong direction

In style

Cause I'm so starved of her affection

(Bridge)

Don't ask to be saved

Don't say my name

When things are said and done cause no one

Has ever played

The games we played and you just never won

And I'm shamed

This happened again

I don't recommend situations when they get sticky and

Please don't forget

The stains show up better wearing black or red

(Chorus Repeats)
