Shivers by Courtney Barnett Lyrics

Genre: rb | Year: 2015

[Verse 1]
I've been contemplating suicide
But it really doesn't suit my style
So I think I'll just act bored instead
And contain the blood I would've shed

[Pre-Chorus]
She makes me feel so ill at ease
My heart is really on its knees
But I keep a poker face so well
That even mother couldn't tell

[Chorus]
But my baby's so vain
She is almost a mirror
And the sound of her name
Sends a permanent shiver down my spine
Down my spine

[Verse 2]
I keep her photograph against my heart
For in my life she plays a starring part
All alcohol and cigarettes
There is no room for cheap regrets
[Pre-Chorus]
She makes me feel so ill at ease
My heart is really on its knees
But I keep a poker face so well
That even mother couldn't tell

[Chorus]
But my baby's so vain
She is almost a mirror
And the sound of her name
Sends a permanent shiver down my spine
Down my spine

[Outro]
Down my spine
Down my spine
