Lyrics

[Snippet]:
Cinnamon in my teeth from your kiss
You’re touching me
All the pills that you did
Violet, blue, green, red
To keep me at arm lengths don’t work
You tried to push me out
But I just find my way back in
Violet, blue, green, red
To keep me out, I win

There's things I wanna say to you
But I'll just let you live
Like if you hold me without hurting me
You'll be the first who ever did
There's things I wanna talk about
But better not to keep
But if you hold me without hurting me
You'll be the first who ever did

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Hold me, love me, touch me, honey
Be the first who ever did
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Hold me, love me, touch me, honey
Be the first who ever did

There's things I wanna say to you
But I'll just let you live
Like if you hold me without hurting me

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Hold me, love me, touch me, honey
Be the first who ever did
