Lyrics
Blood on my shirt, two ripped buttons
Might've killed me that time, oh, if I'd let him
He's slow when he's drunk, and he lost his grip on me
Now, I'm runnin' down la Rue St. Paul
Tryna get out from the weight of it all
Can't flag a cop, I know he won't stop
I'll go see Persephone
Tap, tap, tappin' on your window screen
Gotta let me in, Persephone
Got nowhere to go, but I had to get away from here
Oh, my petals are bruised, but I'm still a flower
Come runnin' to you in the violet hour
Put your skinny arms around me, let me taste your skin
Mouth-to-mouth, mouth to flower
Salty sweet, you give me power
I feel you shake under my lips
Your fingers tender, find my secrets
Don't make a sound, don't cry out love
Your parents are sleepin' just above
I kiss you once, I kiss you twice
Fall asleep, lookin' in each other's eyes
Tap, tap, tappin' on your window screen
Gotta let me in, Persephone
Got nowhere to go, but I have to get away from here
Oh, my petals are bruised, but I'm still a flower
Come runnin' to you in the violet hour
Put your skinny arms around me, let me taste your skin
Light on your shoulder, light on your cheek
Light tellin' me, "It's time to leave"
The birds are callin' to the mornin'
Your parents' feet above us stirrin'
Kiss your belly before I go
Climb back outta your basement window
Back to the cold's bite, back to the hard life
Back to the harsh bright street
Tap, tap, tappin' on your window screen
Gotta let me in, Persephone
Got nowhere to go, but I have to get away from here
Oh, my petals are bruised, but I'm still a flower
Come runnin' to you in the violet hour
Put your skinny arms around me, let me taste your skin
Oh, my petals are bruised, but I'm still a flower
Come runnin' to you in the violet hour
Put your skinny arms around me, let me taste your skin
