Machine Gun Lyrics - Kaleidoscope Heart - Sara Bareilles

Tell me off in a letter 

Completely ignore me 

Gettin' high off of saying 

Why you don't adore me? 

Baby, please 

I'm well versed 

In how I might be cursed 

I don't need it articulated 

Stand in line wastin' 

All of your time just to hate me 

Every dime gone to ways 

You can find that might bait me 

And drag me down 

Sight set proudly 

Bring me to the ground see 

You love to be somebody's enemy

Maybe nobody loved you when you were young 

Maybe, boy, when you cry, nobody ever comes 

Will you try it once, give up the machine gun? 

Machine gun, yeah 

Locked and loaded 

You're practically floating away now 

In your fortress you feel like 

You're more or less safe now 

But let me say 

I don't mean harm, oh 

But, baby, you'd be charming 

If you'd come undone, get back where you started from 

Maybe nobody loved you when you were young 

Maybe, boy, when you cry, nobody ever comes 

Will you try it once, give up the machine gun? 

Machine gun

Never mind how you've rationed your time 

And the battle is underway 

Maybe times are gonna change 

Don't just hide in the silence behind 

What you've really been trying to say 

What a skill, baby 

Aiming to kill me 

With words you don't mean 

Maybe nobody loved you when you were young 

Maybe, boy, when you cry, nobody ever comes 

Will you try it once, give up the machine gun? 

Will you try it once, give up the machine gun? 

Will you try it once, give up the machine gun? 

Machine gun, yeah
