Cherry Barbs

from Cold and Bitter Girl EP by Vonnie Kyle

lyrics

Tell me your forgiveness is all in kindness
Lie, lie, lie, lie to me
I'll walk away if we strike a bargain
It's fine, fine, fine, finally
Pull your hand from the fire
And drop it entirely
It's coming back now to haunt me
The monster inside of me

Any and all survivors
Standing in line with me
All, all, all, all surviving
Hearts on the table with moscato and nicotine
You can help yourself to anyone in the room
And if you're feeling angry then
Just do what you do
But if somebody tells you to run,
Don't wait

Somebody once told me,
When you're staring down the barrel
If they hold their weapon steady
You can hear them being careful
Because you can't aim at a person's heart
When it's always so unstable
But you swim around it like cherry barbs
On a sharp and winding cable

And so all my criers
The lovers who won't be shamed
And all my believers in promises never made
When it's so long from now
And nobody knows their name
Just a forgotten face
In a half-empty bottle of jäg
