Guard Dog Songtext
von ella jane

Today, we went out by the tall grass
Laid under the sky
Saw you scan for a bomb or a plane crash
If nothing′s wrong, it ain't right
Up late, keeping watch like a guard dog
You stay by the bed
Afraid I′ll be gone when you wake up
Well, that hasn't happened yet

And I feel you keeping me outside (I feel you keeping me outside)
Why don't you speak your mind?

You think your mouth is a loaded gun
You′re scared you′ll pull it on me, mm
Well, there's nothing you could say to make me run
So don′t love me like I'm gonna leave, mm, mm, mm


I know you were born on a fault line
In some ways, so was I (ah)
I grew up under towering buildings
Swore they could fall any time
Sometimes, I can tell when you kiss me
You′re scared it's our last (scared it′s our last)
Do you really believe I would put out the fire?
Babe, I'm the one with the match

You think your mouth is a loaded gun
You're scared you′ll pull it on me, oh
Well, there′s nothing you could say to make me run
So don't love me like I′m gonna leave, ah, oh
That night you asked if we were too in love
I understood it for the both of us, mm
The only thing that's gonna fuck this up
Is if you love me like I′m gonna leave, like I'm gonna leave

Oh, we can ride it out, just let your guard come down
Nothing′s so different now, nothing is different now
Yeah, we can ride this out, we're still on solid ground
And when it gets too loud, I'm gonna stick around
I feel it when we touch, you′re running through my blood
And I can′t get enough (you're scared you′ll pull it on me, oh)
I'll never get enough
So please believe me now, I love you, scream it loud
We′re gonna ride this out, we're gonna ride this out
Oh, oh, so don′t love me like I'm gonna leave, like I'm gonna leave
