Lyrics
[Lucy Dacus] You put salt in the wound And a kiss on my cheek You butter me up And you sit down to eat You add insult to injury You say you believe in me But you haven't decided About taking or leaving me But you take and you take Like silks up my sleeve Tied corner to corner, never ending Trick after trick, I make the magic And you unrelentingly ask for the secret [Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers] Neck full of mockingbirds All calling your name I tried to sing it all back Like I heard it, it don't sound the same I'm gnashing my teeth Like a child of Cain If this is a prison I'm willing to buy my own chain But you take and you take Like silks up my sleeve Tied corner to corner, never ending Trick after trick, I make the magic And you unrelentingly ask for the secret [Lucy Dacus, Julien Baker] They say the hearts and minds are on your side They say the finish line is in your sights What they don't say is what's on the other side They say the hearts and minds are on your side
