labour - Paris Paloma

[00:00.0]labour (Explicit) - Paris Paloma
[00:04.59]Why are you hanging on
[00:08.38]So tight
[00:09.88]To the rope that I'm hanging from
[00:13.62]Off this island
[00:16.13]This was an escape plan
[00:19.57]Carefully timed it
[00:21.17]So let me go
[00:23.69]And dive into the waves below
[00:27.3]Who tends the orchards
[00:29.98]Who fixes up the gables
[00:32.9]Emotional torture
[00:35.66]From the head of your high table
[00:38.39]Who fetches the water
[00:41.33]From the rocky mountain spring
[00:43.94]And walk back down again
[00:46.33]To feel you words and their sharp sting
[00:51.02]And I'm getting ******* tired
[00:54.82]The capillaries in my eyes are bursting
[00:57.45]If our love died would that be the worst thing
[01:00.56]For somebody I thought was my saviour
[01:02.93]You sure make me do a whole lot of labour
[01:06.33]The calloused skin on my hands is cracking
[01:08.94]If our love ended would that be a bad thing
[01:11.86]As the silence haunts our bed chamber
[01:14.63]You make me do too much labour
[01:30.66]Apologies from my tongue
[01:34.020004]Never yours
[01:35.64]Busy lapping from flowing cup
[01:38.8]And stabbing with your fork
[01:41.83]I know you're a smart man
[01:45.09]And weaponise
[01:47.520004]The false incompetence
[01:49.35]It's dominance under guise
[01:52.91]If we had a daughter
[01:55.59]I'd watch and could not save her
[01:58.369995]The emotional torture
[02:01.32]From the head of your high table
[02:04.06]She'd do what you taught her
[02:07.24]She'd meet the same cruel fate
[02:09.93]So now I've gotta run
[02:12.39]So I can undo this mistake
[02:17.24]At least I've gotta try
[02:20.32]The capillaries in my eyes are bursting
[02:23.18]If our love died would that be the worst thing
[02:26.26]For somebody I thought was my saviour
[02:28.74]You sure make me do a whole lot of labour
[02:32.0]The calloused skin on my hands is cracking
[02:34.73]If our love ended would that be a bad thing
[02:37.58]As the silence haunts our bed chamber
[02:40.36]You make me do too much labour
[02:43.11]All day every day therapist mother maid
[02:46.06]Nymph then virgin nurse and a servant
[02:48.89]Just an appendage live to attend him
[02:51.7]So that he never lifts a finger
[02:54.64]24/7 baby machine
[02:57.13]So he can live out his picket fence dreams
[03:00.32]It's not an act of love if you make her
[03:03.1]You make me do too much labour
[03:05.98]All day every day therapist mother maid
[03:08.89]Nymph then virgin nurse and a servant
[03:11.71]Just an appendage live to attend him

[03:31.73]If our love died would that be the worst thing
[03:34.57]For somebody I thought was my saviour

[03:42.84]So he can live out his picket fence dreams
[03:46.03]It's not an act of love if you make her
