Harry Heart - Vex Lyrics

Give me dirty eyes in a restaurant,

See the trouble is, it's the trouble I want.

If I don the black I better know my odds.

Give me ten to one, give me five to none,

Give me nothing at all.

He's dirty and domesticated,

But your back to me is a back worth breaking.

I was glowing red in a crystal ball,

And the trouble is, it's the trouble I want.

Can you believe the pills young things are taking?

You wanna shout a lot, well that's a sign of age,

Like the bones in your best friend's basement.

But the devil breathes, he's alive and well,

And the trouble just keeps troubling yourself.

Now Mary, don't you drink the poison.

It's just seven days 'til your next revival.

(Are you vexed?)

I will give you hell if you give me trust,

It's a beautiful and selfish reason.

And if I make a mess I better roll my sleeves up,

See the exodus (for the best of us),

Is all gonna come out on top.

And it's plaguing on my concentration,

A life at stake if I'm mistaken.

So I take a vow as a troublemaker,

'Cos a heart of gold is a heart worth breaking.

Now Mary, don't you drink the poison.

It's just seven days 'til your next revival.

(Are you vexed?)
