Cold When Provoked

[Verse 1] I keep my cool in the room like a blade in the sleeve quiet face, heavy chest you don't know what I keep I don't start fires, no I just learn every spark every word, every scar every mark in the dark Push me hard, push me twice I go still, I go numb then the truth gets sharp and my mercy gets cut I can smile, then switch make it plain, make it cold if you break what is mine I get mean, I get old [Pre-Chorus] Say less, I can hear it that edge in your tone pressure makes me cleaner turns my heart into stone One more step, one more line and the room goes thin I don't bend for the pain I let the ice come in [Chorus] Push me too far I go cold Push me too far I lose control Push me too far I say it blunt Push me too far I don't give a— I don't give a Cold when provoked Cold when provoked You want the truth? Then here it goes Cold when provoked Cold when provoked Say my name right or let me go [Verse 2] I don't do fake peace I don't do polite if I see the whole lie I won't dress it up right I can look you in the eye and split your pride clean one sentence, no velvet just the blade of the thing Heartless? Maybe when I been cornered too long I learned how to survive by going where it's wrong If you press on the bruise I won't soften the frame I'll be straight like a nail and I won't say your name I don't care to be liked when the mask comes off I can turn into winter and make your warmth stop [Pre-Chorus] Feel that hush in the hallway that chill in the skin when the pressure keeps climbing and the cracks let it in I don't need to be loved when I'm fighting to breathe I just need you to know what you pull out of me [Chorus] Push me too far I go cold Push me too far I lose control Push me too far I say it blunt Push me too far I don't give a— I don't give a Cold when provoked Cold when provoked You want the truth? Then here it goes Cold when provoked Cold when provoked Say my name right or let me go [Bridge] I used to bite my tongue til it bled in my mouth now I taste every lie and I spit it out If you want a warm soul better handle it gentle 'cause I got walls made of steel and a heart gone mental [Final Chorus] Push me too far I go cold Push me too far I lose control Push me too far I get blunt Push me too far I don't give a— I don't give a Cold when provoked Cold when provoked You want the truth? Then here it goes Cold when provoked Cold when provoked Push me too far and I let it go
