to be ignored
Harmony in Chaos: Faith Floyd's Ode to Irresistible Contrasts
Lyrics
I grew up on rock and roll
I have a background rooted in rock and roll music.
And he plays jazz
He prefers jazz music.
We're so good together
Despite our differences, we make a great pair.
Even though we're so bad
Our relationship is intense, even though it might be considered problematic.
He's a bit shorter than me
He is slightly shorter than me.
But his smile is a dream
His smile is captivating and feels like a fantasy.
Gets a bit louder than me
He can be more assertive or vocal than me.
But I like it like that
I enjoy it when he is more expressive.
He knows how to talk back to a bitch like me
He knows how to respond assertively to me.
Give me space and let me breathe
I need personal space and freedom.
Get me high and let me sleep
I want to experience highs and peaceful moments.
Be my baby don't be mean
Be affectionate to me, not cruel.
He's way too much to be ignored
He is too significant to be overlooked or dismissed.
I cannot leave I locked that door
I feel compelled to stay with him, having closed the metaphorical door on leaving.
(I slammed it and locked it you got me on hook and i'm not getting off it)
(I closed and locked the door; he has a hold on me that I can't escape.)
He's got perfect rhythm
He has a perfect sense of timing or musical rhythm.
Im a keys kind of girl
I prefer musical instruments like keyboards.
He's got a list of admirers
He has admirers, but he claims I am his entire world.
But says I'm his whole world
He understands the potential outcomes of his actions.
He knows the consequences
He avoids playing games he cannot win.
Won't play a game he won't win
He is always defensive, but I appreciate that quality.
Always on defensive
I like him precisely because he knows how to act for someone like me.
But thats why I like him
He can pretend to suit my preferences.
Knows how to pretend for a bitch like me
Even through tough situations, he remains resilient for me.
Straight through concrete
I am strong and not easily influenced.
You don't control me
I am not controlled by external forces.
But you can play me and tease me
However, he can play with me and provoke me.
He's way too much to be ignored
He is too important to be disregarded.
I cannot leave I locked that door
I feel compelled to stay with him, having closed the metaphorical door on leaving.
(I slammed it and locked it you got me on hook and i'm not getting off it)
(I closed and locked the door; he has a hold on me that I can't escape.)
Can't give him up
I can't let go of him.
Can't give him up
-Can't give him up
-Nah can't give him up
I absolutely can't let go of him.
