Sia - Straight For The Knife lyrics

rate me

Put on my best dress

I wanted to impress

I put on a knicker pull

Put a bow in my head

We’re pretty in our way

Open you my ticket oh

Don’t know if you already care

But I’m strapped to my chair

And it ain’t ‘cause you’re pretty

You were charming until

You saw your chance to kill

Your chance to make a story

You went straight for the knife

And I’m prepared to die

You play it chimes

Look me straight in the eye

Turn the gas on high

Put the flame alive

You wonder why I’m scared of falling

You wonder why you make girls cry

My mascara a mess

Harsh words for your princess

Boy, you and your promises

And if you’re goal was to love

You scored an epic mess

And I’m just a memory

You went straight for the knife

And I’m prepared to die

You play it chimes

Look me straight in the eye

Turn the gas on high

Put the flame alive

You wonder why I’m scared of falling

You wonder why you make girls cry

Boy, you’re drowning again

I’m hungry for your better loving

But will someone find me swinging round after

I’m hanging on your every word

You went straight for the knife

And I’m prepared to die

You play it chimes

Look me straight in the eye

Turn the gas on high

Put the flame alive

You wonder why I’m scared of falling

You wonder why you make girls cry

You wonder why you make girls cry
