Hit Me Like You Mean It

from Focus Group by Gabriel Lynch

/

lyrics

You broke the skin
You stood so tough
You knocked me down
Now I can't get up

You cursed my name
Forced me to crawl
With my busted lip, I kissed your clenching jaw
Because beyond all explanation, there's nothing I want more

Your knuckles cracked
You bared your teeth
Tore me to shreds
It's hard to believe
I keep coming back
I keep pressing on
With my busted lip, my mind, it must be gone
But with that uppercut foundation, I'm begging you to...

Hit me like you mean it
Beat me down, beat til I break
It's a cold enough stare, I don't know the reason
Still I crave, still I thirst, I cannot wait, do your worst
I love the way it hurts

And as I sway
And as I bleed
You pull the rug out under my feet
Controlled delusion
Perfect retreat
With my busted lip, it's such a grand defeat
And exceeds all expectation
Oh what the fuck is wrong with me

I'm your slave, do your worst
I love the way it hurts
