Claws – Lil Lavi Lyrics

(Wicked people lie)

(And down the line)

(In cramped coffins they'll lie)

Ya wanna put me in a fishbowl

Watch me all the time as if I were a fish

And when I don't do something you wish

Ya stop feeding me and let me perish

You deny my anguish

Also deny it when I say you're selfish

You downplay all my issues

Then ask me why this house's walls are full of fissures

You create a worse version of me

That only exists in your stories

But I got a worse version of you

That exists in my memories

You pretend to offer me your hand to hold

And scratch me with your claws

After all, I'm your stuffed toy

I'm nothing more (nothing more)

There is nothing to do

Perhaps my family squabbles

Were already foretold (foretold)

You pretend to offer me your hand to hold

And scratch me with your claws

(Claws, claws, claws, claws)

And scratch me with your claws

(Claws, claws, claws)

The gold isn't up for grabs for all (for all)

This whole place's a dollhouse

We're nothing but a bunch of dolls

Time slows down (slow down)

The only thing that sets us apart are

The crowns that sit atop our heads

Then we'll all just be dead

In a graveyard

You pretend to offer me your hand to hold

And scratch me with your claws

After all, I'm your stuffed toy

I'm nothing more

(Nothing more)

(Nothing more)

(Nothing more)
