Courtship From Hell (Version 5 Country Metal)

(Long Musical Intro) (Verse 1) You sent me roses stuffed in a paper bag Thorns on the stems with a little black tag Said, “Baby, come close, I got big plans for us” Then you locked the door with a smile resembling rust Your compliments land like a folding chair Sweet in the front, then a bruise down there You call it a date, I call it a relationship test You make a giant mess and call it your best (Pre-Chorus) I should've seen it In the way that you lie All silk and gray smoke Wrapped up in a lullaby Out loud, you say my name Like it owns the whole room Now every promise you make Turns into gloom and doom (Chorus) Courtship from hell Courtship from hell You kiss so hard, then you ring the bell Courtship from hell Courtship from hell I fell for the charm and then the spell Courtship from hell Courtship from hell You wear that grin as your smile swells Courtship from hell Courtship from hell Baby, you love me too much and you know me way too well (Verse 2) You took my hand to the county fair Won me a stuffed animal with a vacant stare Then you whispered, “Stay,” at the ticket line Like a pretty little trap buried in a punchline Your texts come sweet with a dagger’s edge One more “how are you?” and I’ll jump from the ledge You bring me in closer, then pull me down low Like a slow moving parade with nowhere to go (Pre-Chorus) I should've seen it In the way that you lie All silk and gray smoke Wrapped up in a lullaby Out loud, you say my name Like it owns the whole room Now every promise you make Turns into gloom and doom (Chorus) Courtship from hell Courtship from hell You kiss so hard, then you ring the bell Courtship from hell Courtship from hell I fell for the charm and then the spell Courtship from hell Courtship from hell You wear that grin as your smile swells Courtship from hell Courtship from hell Baby, you love me too much and you know me way too well (Verse 3) I had a feeling burning in my chest But I wore it like a party dress Pretty and torn at the seams You’ve made a home out of bad dreams Now I’m backing away from the front door No more blood will be spilled on the dance floor Take your golden crown and take your spell I’m finally done with this courtship from hell (Pre-Chorus) I should've seen it In the way that you lie All silk and gray smoke Wrapped up in a lullaby Out loud, you say my name Like it owns the whole room Now every promise you make Turns into gloom and doom (Long Musical Solos) (Chorus) Courtship from hell Courtship from hell You kiss so hard, then you ring the bell Courtship from hell Courtship from hell I fell for the charm and then the spell Courtship from hell Courtship from hell You wear that grin as your smile swells Courtship from hell Courtship from hell Baby, you love me too much and you know me way too well (Outro) I should've seen it I should've known You left a long slippery trail On the front porch stone Out loud, you say my name Like it’s a warning sign Now every “maybe” you utter Feels like a criminal lie (Long Musical Outro)
