[Verse 1] You wrapped your heart in caution tape Said handle carefully, it breaks tore right through it with my teeth Said baby, make a mess of me Think you're an overwhelming flood I've been a desert - bring me mud [Pre-Chorus] You say "I'll wreck you" - I'm scattered parts You say "I'll break you" - keeps me sharp You think you're dangerous - ("uh, kind of hot") You call it warning, baby, I say that's the plot [Chorus] Drown me, burn me, turn me inside out I've been too careful, too afraid to shout So bring it - bring the flood, the fire, the fall You say nobody could handle this at all You think your love's the wave that breaks the rocks Baby I'm the shipwreck waiting for the shock [Verse 2] You built these walls in self-defense You learned to ration your intense But I've been starving twenty years For someone unafraid of tears You say "black hole," I say "pull me in" You say "consume," yeah I'm diving in [Pre-Chorus] You say "I'll shatter you" - see what spills out it's just more of me to crack your doubt You say "you don't know what you're asking for" I say "don't know what I've survived before" [Chorus] Drown me, burn me, turn me inside out I've been too careful, too afraid to shout So bring it - bring the flood, the fire, the fall You say nobody could handle this at all You think your love's the wave that breaks the rocks Baby I'm the shipwreck waiting for the shock [explodes into blazing guitar solo, no drums breakdown] [Bridge] Maybe I'm reckless Maybe insane But I've been careful all my life And it only brought me pain And if I break, then let me break If I drown, I'll learn to swim If I burn, I'll rise as smoke You're not dangerous to me I'm a drowning fool, but I'm free [Final Chorus] So bring it - bring the storm, bring all you've got I'm not running, not hiding anymore You say your love's too much, I say it's what I want I'm the pig who prays for mud The desert begging for the flood The powder praying for the sparks I'm a shipwreck waiting for the rocks [Outro] You say "I'm afraid to show you" I say "try me" You say "it's a lot" I say "good" I'm not here to deal with it— I'm here to drown in it
