give you better
Singer:correspondents, the
in the public eye he's sweetness and light
but it's a different story in the cover of night
there's a dark side that he can't help but let rip
and you my dear who takes the full brunt of it
how many times have you followed him home
while he shouts at his phone?
do you believe his boss keeps him in late?
how many more lies can you take?
is a count of six rows in a seven day week
a tally that you're keen to keep?
he may not hit you but he's broken your things: you fix them as another storm spins
the truth is that you like the white water rapids
of a man who is out of control
i can't give you this but if
i was yours i'd assume the opposite role
you like the white water rapids
of a man who is out of control
you know the beast wouldn't even care
if his prey was bolt the hole
you don't need him like i need you
your types a man who likes a fight
from over here it's crystal clear
this shatters every principle that you hold dear
and you who sees herself as strong
is going to disappear before too long
please please please read what i've sent
it clearly lays out my intent
to give you space to be you again
i haven't seen you smile since you've been with him
