Desperate Measures

from To The Mountain by Matt Hartless & the Maverick 7

/

lyrics

Another whisper in my direction
We're on the brink if I defy
As things slowly worsen you forget them
I am to be punished for taking no side

Oh, Ivory, I don't love you

It's killing me, honey, you're a black hole for money
I distance myself to escape all your cunning
But you slash at my feet, lacerate the soles
And impale my chest, so I can't fill the hole

Oh, Ivory, I don't love you
Oh, Ivory, I don't love you

Do me a favour and can your behaviour
As hard as you wish, I cannot be your saviour
So desperate measures call for disparate times
And your gaze fixed on heaven so you missed all the signs

Oh, Ivory, I don't love you
Oh, Ivory, I don't love you
Oh, Ivory, I don't love you
Oh, Ivory, I don't-
