Matilda Cole - Bite Down Lyrics

gonna get a little cooler
i'm a little bit crueller than before
but not like you were
god it felt unholy
when he told me
if you're looking for the church baby turn around
got an empty hearse and hole in the ground
and a kingdom
so i said i'd ring him

the way he lays
all his chains
make the shape of a crucifix
in the eden
i can see him
put the apple right to his lips

and bite down

so bare in the light now
so pray to it right now
so cruel when we lie down
so quick when he bites down
you bite down
you bite down
you like it with the lights out

i could be a fighter
i walk a little lighter with one fist clenched beside me
saying come on try me
come and light me up
got a semi automatic and a firing hand
only room for one in this one horse town
so try it
lay the bait i'll bite it

the way he lays
all his chains
make the shape of a crucifix
in the eden
i can see him
put the apple right to his lips

and bite down

so bare in the light now
so pray to it right now
so cruel when we lie down
so quick when he bites down
you bite down
you bite down
you like it with the lights out

i should've known better than to beg for absolution
he's looking through me now
should've better than to try to bite the bullet
it's locked and loaded out

so bare in the light now

so pray to it right now
so cruel when we lie down
so quick when he bites down
you bite down
you bite down
you like it with the lights out
