Olivetree

I found an olive tree marled and growing in Boston
That I know you planted
Placed in my scope like a militant optimist
And I cannot stand it
(Stand it)

I never wanted, never wanted
Your lips, bloodthirsty, I'd forgotten
Waste of the earth, your love is rotten
Didn't I throw you out?
I know you're not capable of leaving angry exes alone
Sour candy in my pocket, wrapper on the ground
(The ground)

You tore a branch from the olive tree and pointed at me
Thinking you're chivalrous
As if I were drowning
And you were the lifeboat
That kept my heart in business

I always wanted, always wanted closure
You'd ask me out so I could fuck you over
Mess you up 'til the moon comes up
You already thought I was crazy
Crazy
Torch in my left and pitchfork in my right
I'll show you what a white flag is tonight
Until you're cursed and begging me for mercy
Think twice!
(Think twice)
END
