Suicide Blondes

You’re as shallow as the water you were never baptized in
I’ve got calloused finger tips from your pull-string Barbie rhetoric
You speak with less conviction than a hopeless romantic
Fortune favors the bold

But attracts hearts so cold
It lies dormant in our bones
And brings us together alone
As we conspire to inspire

The stakes have never been higher
Keep the suicides away from knives
Or they’ll connect the cuts
Let’s call a spade a spade

Clip your wings with your shoulder blades
Temper, temper. Would you eat your young?
Would you join the feeding?
I can’t be your tourniquet. I can’t stop the bleeding

Fortune favors the bold
But attracts hearts so cold
It lies dormant in our bones
And brings us together alone

As we conspire to inspire
The stakes have never been higher
Keep the suicides away from knives
Or they’ll connect the cuts
Guard your heart
