Straight For The Knife
Sia
Put on my best dress
I wanted to impress
I put a little make-up on
Put a bow in my hair
Wore pretty underwear
Hoping you might take it off
Don't know your etiquette
But I'm strapped to my chair
And it ain't cause you're pretty
You were charming until
You saw your chance to kill
Your chance to make a story
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die
Your blade, it shines
Looked me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight
You wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why
You make girls cry
My mascara, a mess
Harsh words for your princess
Boy, you and your promises
And if you goal was to love
You scored an epic mess
Now you'll just have memories
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die
Your blade, it shines
Looked me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight
You wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why
You make girls cry
Boy you draw me back in
I'm hungry for your bad loving
But will someone find me swinging
From the rafters?
From hanging on your every word
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die
Your blade, it shines
Looked me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high
Held the flame alive
You wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why
You make girls cry
