Sugar Then Shrapnel

Lyrics

[Intro] Soft voice Sweet like summer songs Tracing scars on my arm Saying “I belong” Two notes On that broken string You laugh I feel everything [Verse 1] You say “slow down” I been stuck in overdrive, nose down Heart on the floor, yeah it froze out Smile like a blade when you joke now Bare feet on my chest, you the crown Lip gloss on a threat when you pout You taste like comfort Look like trouble Sugar on the fuse and it’s almost out [Pre-Chorus] You lean in, say “Boy, you talk too much” Hands around my neck But it feel like trust Pulse starts pacing Room starts shaking If I let go What we waking [Chorus] You so sweet till you snap like metal Kiss me soft then you shove that pedal “Baby, breathe” while you crack my halo Sugar then shrapnel, sugar then shrapnel Hold my hand then you twist that handle Turn my calm to a lit black candle Heaven voice with a hell-side echo Sugar then shrapnel, sugar then shrapnel [Post-Chorus] [beat drops hard] Yeah, yeah You the bomb in my lap, I’m a dead man walking Tiny little waist, big rage, no talking Cute face, full tank, then the fangs start locking Whole block shake when your mood starts dropping (woah) [Verse 2] Soft laugh, then the jaw goes tight Cherry mouth, but your eyes on fight You say “I’m fine” but it sound like bite Satin dress, but it fit like spite You draw hearts on my throat with a marker Then you press just enough make it darker You pray over me like a martyr But you burn every saint that you honor [Pre-Chorus] Say “come closer” I feel crosshairs Velvet touch on my skin Steel in your stare All that honey Hides that barrel Count to three Turn feral [Chorus] You so sweet till you snap like metal Kiss me soft then you shove that pedal “Baby, breathe” while you crack my halo Sugar then shrapnel, sugar then shrapnel Hold my hand then you twist that handle Turn my calm to a lit black candle Heaven voice with a hell-side echo Sugar then shrapnel, sugar then shrapnel [Post-Chorus] [distorted vocal ad-libs] Bad habit, you my worst best thing Halo in your hand like a nose ring Slow dance then you pull that pin Love song turn a pit, let the war begin [growled backing] You so sweet, so lethal Cherry bomb, cathedral Pray my name, then reload Sugar drip on the death note [Bridge] [half-time, huge guitars] Hold me gentle Crush my ribs Say it’s love Then you flip the switch Slow and tender Then you wreck my chest “Trust me, baby” Finger on the crest [Chorus] You so sweet till you snap like metal Kiss me soft then you shove that pedal “Baby, breathe” while you crack my halo Sugar then shrapnel, sugar then shrapnel Hold my hand then you twist that handle Turn my calm to a lit black candle Heaven voice with a hell-side echo Sugar then shrapnel, sugar then shrapnel [Post-Chorus] [full-on trap-metal drop, screamed doubles] Sweet face, black heart, that’s you (that’s you) Slow tune, then you break right through (break through) Soft song, then the bass go boom Sugar in my mouth, then you light that fuse
