King Street by Eleni Drake Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Chamomile in your palms, but you ruin it with every chance
Spit blood on the floor and throw their bodies in the morgue
Had our conversation, sat in the car park
Well, I told you I'd stay here
So you've got someone to rely on

[Pre-Chorus]
And you see vanilla skies burning holes into your eyes
Hair still tucked inside your shirt, but you don't mind
And I saw vanilla skies, but I've got other things in sight

[Chorus]
You send me bullets, but I send you flowers
I'm all choked up, and I can't say the things I want
Cause you send me bullets, but I send you flowers
I'm all choked up, and I can't say all the things I want

[Verse 2]
You told mе your brother overdosed
You wish that you spokе a little more
But let him rest easy now and just focus on yourself
Had our conversation, sat in your garden
Well, I told you I'd stay here, but I guess that's my problem
[Pre-Chorus]
And you see vanilla skies burning holes into your eyes
Hair still tucked inside your shirt, but you don't mind
And I saw vanilla skies, but I've got other things in sight
Hmm

[Chorus]
You send me bullets, but I send you flowers
I'm all choked up, and I can't say the things I want
You send me bullets, but I send you flowers
I'm all choked up, and I can't say all the things I want

[Outro]
No, I can't say the things I want
No, I can't say that things I want
Oh, you send me bullets
I can't say the things I want
(Fuck it up)
