SVE admits that she writes very personal songs, but that their themes can be applicable to almost anybody. This tune from 2014’s Are We There is no exception. She says:
When I sit down and write, it’s not like, I’m going to sit down and write now. I’m going through shit and it’s my therapy for myse...
[Verse 1]
It's understood
You'll be a man by the time I see you
We've been through better days
And you've tasted all my pain
[Chorus]
Break my legs so I won't walk to you
Cut my tongue so I can't talk to you
Burn my skin so I can't feel you
Stab my eyes so I can't see
You like it when I let you walk over me
You tell me that you like it
Your love is killing me
[Verse 2]
Try to tell you this when I'm sober
How I feel about loving you
Try to remember all the turn of events
Being led by our own fantasies, fantasies
[Chorus]
Break my legs so I won't walk to you
Cut my tongue so I can't talk to you
Burn my skin so I can't feel you
Stab my eyes so I can't see
You like it when I let you walk over me
You tell me that you like it
When our minds become diseased
[Bridge]
There he let it go, his temper, standing there
See her with his gun and he steals love so he can feel alive
Everyone's knees knockin' at the fear of love
Taste blood
Everybody needs to feel
[Chorus]
Break my legs so I won't run to you
Steal my soul so I am one with you
From a distance I am on to you
But I'll stab my eyes out so I can't see
You like it
When I let you walk over me
You tell me that you like it
You love me as you torture me
You told me that you liked it
But I won't let you see
All that I can do is what I can
With this pain you've given me
With this pain you've given me
Your love is killing me
Yes all your pain is killing me
