Tie Her Down Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So love me gently with a chainsaw
And take the glass against your wrists
You know I am your worst nightmare
Oh how you love my bloody kiss
But it's time to die
You're worth more dead

[Chorus]
Tell me your fantasies
I'll make you believe
That I really care
I'll look into your eyes
I'll tell you all my lies
As I take you slow

[Verse 2]
So love me gently with a chainsaw
I'll leave you like your father did
And I'll bite your lip so fucking, so hard
And watch the innocence just drip
Down your chest
And into my mouth

[Chorus]
Tell me your fantasies
I'll make you believe
That I really care
I'll look into your eyes
I'll tell you all my lies
As I take you slow
[Bridge]
So take your tears and go away
So take your tears and go away
A bitter ending from a slow decay
So take your tears and go away
And I'll sit here with a smile and a match

[Outro]
The lies, she cried, the heartache
The lies, she cried, the heartache
The lies, she cried, the heartache
The lies, she cried, the heartache

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

It seems to me like a story of an abusive couple who find pleasure in pain. In the girl’s case, her masochism may be rooted in childhood problems with her father. The boy seems like a sadist that gets off on seeing the girl suffer.
