Destructible by Mishka Shubaly Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Farmer John, you’ve got a lovely daughter
Green apple conditioner like blood in the water
Chipping fingernail polish, second year of college
What secrets does she keep inside her heart-shaped locket?
Tea so sweet
It hurts your teeth

[Verse 2]
Farmer John, I’m in love with your daughter
She lets the towel fall and steps into the water
Her slender body swinging like a pendulum
As close to the beginning as I am to the end

[Chorus]
I am destructible
Paranoid, untrustable
Glass half empty, resentful
Out of patience, out of time
Fire prone, unbulletproof
I cannot tell a truth
Cut the shades down, pull the lights
The darkest hour is just before
The middle of the night
[Verse 3]
When the ‘child bride’ jokes are getting tired
Time’s not on my side
It’s not too late, it’s never too late for you
To change your mind

[Chorus]
I am destructible
Paranoid, untrustable
Glass half empty, resentful
Out of patience, out of time
Fire prone, unbulletproof
I cannot tell a truth
Cut the shades down, pull the lights
The darkest hour is just before
The middle of the night

[Outro]
Cut the shit now, kill the lights
My darling
Goodbye
