Gwenevieve Lyrics - 88 Keys & Counting - Grieves

She said the world paints a picture, that makes her wanna run 

Pull the stars out of the sky and load them into her gun 

Live wire, broken and its taken its toll 

You cant reach what has never been touched, its too cold 

Cuz the sun dont shine for her, she said calmly its a fact 

That she learnt to adapt, and move on with it 

I dont know if I should smile or not 

Or pull that ice box out of her chest and help her thaw 

Cuz she fights like a lover, but sleeps with the enemy 

And asks like shes only getting close, just to empty me 

Gwenevieve, another hook for the line 

And a perfect little painting of disaster in its prime 

And I love it, solely cuz it makes me feel alive 

When she sets the world ablaze and see the fire in my eyes 

Shes the lion in disguise as the prey in the pasture 

Breakdown, build up, agony, the rapture

[Bridge] 

Look at you, the blood from it will taste like wine 

And fill that little glass that you hold up high 

You wanna walk with the shovel in line 

Tried to bury every single little thing that ever made you feel alive 

Youre alone now, just the way you drew it in the dust 

And the walls that protect you from ever showing your trust 

If I could show you what its like from the inside 

Id open up that coffin you been hiding in and speak like 

You dont need to see the fire to smell the gasoline 

Toss another lit match to the bridge 

Burn it down, burn it down, 

Burn it down, burnt it down, 

Burn it down, Gwenevieve you burn the whole world around you and 

You dont need to huff the smoke for the cancer 

Take another step away from your chance 

Burn it down, burn it down, 

Burn it down, burnt it down, 

Burn it down, Gwenevieve and take a shower in its ashes

I wonder what happened to make you like this 

Break it, and leave you throwing stones where the lights dim 

You got a smile on your face like a sliced wrist 

And grin like you got a couple spikes in that ice kiss 

You like it, youre just too afraid to say it 

So break it into pieces and add it to your mosaic 

And nail it to your heart little artist, and protect it 

And murder any perpetrator eyeing your investment 

Cuz love cant bite you if you keep it on a leash 

Fate cant catch you if you take away its feet 

Life cant tell you shit without speech 

So you hide where the lonely eyes on you couldnt seek 

Youre alone, like the last dead petal on a rose 

Picked from the common ground, just to watch it grow 

Or die, Gwenevieve, a ghost in the night 

Smell smoke, see the glow in her eyes, I try to tell you 

You dont need to see the fire to smell the gasoline 

Toss another lit match to the bridge 

Burn it down, burn it down, 

Burn it down, burnt it down, 

Burn it down, Gwenevieve you burn the whole world around you and 

You dont need to huff the smoke for the cancer 

Take another step away from your chance 

Burn it down, burn it down, 

Burn it down, burnt it down, 

Burn it down, Gwenevieve and take a shower in its ashes 

You dont need to see the fire to smell the gasoline 

Toss another lit match to the bridge 

Burn it down, burn it down, 

Burn it down, burnt it down, 

Burn it down, Gwenevieve you burn the whole world around you and 

You dont need to huff the smoke for the cancer 

Take another step away from your chance 

Burn it down, burn it down, 

Burn it down, burnt it down, 

Burn it down, Gwenevieve and take a shower in its ashes
