Hornet’s Nest Lyrics by Ashe
I said I love you too soon
We were parked inside an open field
I said I needed your touch
I think I said too much
You swallowed my gum
Passed me half your cigarette
Held the sting in my lungs
And kicked the hornet’s nest
Wore my heart on my sleeve
You unraveled all my thread
We were naked in the front seat
I was crying on your dash
I gritted my teeth
My tears rolled down my breast
When I got up to leave
I kicked the hornet’s nest
You made me someone
For once I was someone
And finally someone to myself
But I started seeing
Your angels for demons
Now heaven is hurting like hell
We’ll drink the arsenic, set fire to the gardens and I’ll disappear with your help
‘Cause you made me someone
For once I was someone
But you made me somebody else (somebody else)
It happened on a Wednesday night
The man in the moon was mad
Felt the pressure push against my thighs
I was a virgin in your hands
I wanted you to say it back (say it back, say it back)
Why don’t you give it rest?
When I took you past the finish line
I kicked the hornet’s nest
You made me someone
For once I was someone
And finally someone to myself
But I started seeing
Your angels for demons
Now heaven is hurting like hell
We’ll drink the arsenic, set fire to the gardens and I’ll disappear with your help
‘Cause you made me someone
For once I was someone
But you made me somebody else (somebody else)
If we get any closer
I could fall into your mouth
I’m not coming over
In full disclosure
I think you’re gonna spit me out
If we get any closer
I could fall into your mouth
I’m not coming over
In full disclosure
I think you’re gonna spit me out
You made me someone
For once I was someone
And finally someone to myself
But I started seeing
Your angels for demons
Now heaven is hurting like hell
We’ll drink the arsenic, set fire to the gardens and I’ll disappear with your help
‘Cause you made me someone
For once I was someone
But you made me somebody else (somebody else, somebody else)
