Lipstick and Dynamite

from Americana Soul Clash by Tracer Bullet

/

lyrics

Behind your weary eyes
I see a soul been hypnotized
by empty, shy white lies
and shaking voice once victimized, so I
count the ways you're breaking
a million pieces hit the ground
In a blink of an eye
I get the feelin I might die from a
kiss that hit like cyanide, now
she's all lipstick and dynamite
can't deny the cherry spark is flaming
burnin out to blow me down

If every single night i waited for the sun to rise
no hope then would i find
I'd sit next to a thin white line and I'd
count the hearts I'm breakin
and hear the clock start winding down
So now I think I might just
kiss you once to greet the night
but should I fall from this height
who will scrape me off the road tonight? If i
pull the pin now baby
will your semtex complex rub me out?

So now I'll kiss the sky and blast off to a sweet goodbye
a heart that beats like a landmine
and lips that hit like cyanide, and I
count the ways I'm breaking
feelin the sick and sweet fall out
And in your smokey eyes
I see a cloud begin to rise,
I'll take the shock wave for a ride
then come back down to stem the tide, tonight
Your heart's exploding baby
and I'm along now for the ride

your heart is like a time bomb
where the seconds have no use
or TNT for you and me
burnin out the fuse
and if your lips are loaded baby,
who am I to refuse?
