Little Dagger, Little Sweetness Lyrics

Discomfort rages through you like a hurricane

It shines through like your skin was made of cellophane

Take all those little daggers, pull them back out of your brain

Sorry doesn't cut it when it's killing you

But you cut to heal like it's your fucking purpose too

You can turn blue into red, but you can't turn red back into blue

But don't you ever think that there is something wrong with you

Just love yourself like no one else ever can do

Maybe arrogance blew through you like a wrecking ball

Threw your body to the ground, turned your friendships to fuck all

You can turn yourself around just to fall as hard as you stood tall

Who's been kissing on that sugar-coated tongue you found

Whom you turn around and run your sour lips about

Won't you take that little sweetness, spit it back out of your mouth

If purpose doesn't find you like you want it to

You don't have to lie awake at night

Maybe everything you want is right in front of you

Maybe you would just prefer to fight

You can lose a friend and try to teach yourself to love

You can follow faithful arrows, paint a pigeon like a dove

Blame it on yourself or you can curse the stars above

But if you lose your faith in God, don't tell your mother

You'll only steal the sleep out of her eyes

If your angels never come to call, in this take solace

Not everyone lives but everybody dies

Not everyone lives but everybody dies

Not everyone lives but everybody dies
