The Jezabels - Hurt Me lyrics

rate me

(these lyrics may be totally wrong.)

Oh, love, is that a vulture? Tell me it’s a vulture

standing beside you

and do you see your own face in his eyes?

Do you see him like I do? oh

he used to be there when you said you believed it

i would believe it too

he used to be there when you said you were leaving

i'd want to follow you

but never where the dogs bark, never where the dogs bark

and I remember, praying at the dinner table

for you to come around, maybe pat me on the back when you're able.

Now I've a dream of you with half a face

and you take me to a rooftop and skin me

come on, evil, are you going to skin me?

and use it as a mask to keep you in the dark

when the shadow of the moon won't do

'cause on you, the moon is but a pearl

stolen from your mother's bedside the day you came into the world

still now, i can hear the dogs bark, i can hear the dogs bark

and i remember, praying at the dinner table

for you to come around, maybe pat me on the back when you're able

oh whole cities light up, but nothing can compare to you, baby

so I stay awake, laying on the dinner table

waiting for you to hurt me, come on evil, hurt me, hurt me, hurt me

come down to the world

hurt me, come on evil, cut me, cut me, serve me 'round the table.

and now it's laying on the table

waiting for you, on the table

to carve it up and watch the (?) across the riverbed

and sweet aromas fill the halls from all the bodies that came before

and that's the body, i swear that's the body

i remember, it was laying on the dinner table

and when you came around, said you'll be doing fine when you're able

oh whole cities light up but nothing can compare to you, baby

so i stay awake, laying on the dinner table

oh hurt me, hurt me, hurt me

oh cut me, cut me, serve me
