[00:00.00]
[00:07.40]Why are you hangin' on
[00:09.60]
[00:11.10]So tight
[00:12.60]To the rope that I'm hangin' from
[00:15.10]
[00:16.60]Off this island?
[00:18.70]
[00:19.00]This was an escape plan (This was an escape plan)
[00:22.30]Carefully timed it
[00:23.90]So let me go
[00:25.70]And dive into the waves below
[00:29.20]
[00:30.10]Who tends the orchards?
[00:32.60]Who fixes up the gables?
[00:35.50]Emotional torture
[00:38.60]From the head of your high table
[00:41.20]Who fetches the water
[00:44.10]From the rocky mountain spring?
[00:46.90]And walk back down again
[00:49.50]To feel your words and their sharp sting?
[00:53.30]And I'm gettin' fuckin' tired
[00:57.20]
[00:57.50]The capillaries in my eyes are bursting
[01:00.40]If our love died, would that be the worst thing?
[01:03.20]For somebody I thought was my saviour
[01:06.10]You sure make me do a whole lot of labour
[01:08.90]The calloused skin on my hands is crackin'
[01:12.00]If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?
[01:14.60]And the silence haunts our bed chamber
[01:17.20]You make me do too much labour
[01:20.90]
[01:33.30]Apologies from my tongue
[01:35.60]Never yours
[01:38.60]Busy lapping from flowing cup
[01:41.40]And stabbing with your fork
[01:44.60]I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man)
[01:47.90]And weaponise
[01:50.00]The false incompetence
[01:52.40]It's dominance under guise
[01:55.60]If we had a daughter
[01:58.00]I'd watch and could not save her
[02:01.30]The emotional torture
[02:03.90]From the head of your high table
[02:06.70]She'd do what you taught her
[02:09.60]She'd meet the same cruel fate
[02:12.90]So now I've gotta run
[02:14.90]So I can undo this mistake
[02:18.60]At least I've gotta try
[02:23.20]The capillaries in my eyes are bursting
[02:26.00]If our love died, would that be the worst thing?
[02:28.80]For somebody I thought was my saviour
[02:31.50]You sure make me do a whole lot of labour
[02:34.60]The calloused skin on my hands is crackin'
[02:37.40]If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?
[02:40.30]And the silence haunts our bed chamber
[02:43.00]You make me do too much labour
[02:46.30]All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid
[02:49.10]Nymph, then a virgin, nurse, then a servant
[02:51.70]Just an appendage, live to attend him
[02:54.50]So that he never lifts a finger
[02:57.40]Twenty-four-seven baby machine
[02:59.70]So he can live out his picket fence dreams
[03:02.80]It's not an act of love if you make her
[03:05.90]You make me do too much labour
[03:08.90]All day...........
