BARTER BABY (I'll Trade You My Heart)

about

Non-LP outtake from the band's forthcoming LP "Hysteria" coming Spring 2022

lyrics

Straight up
I’ll be honest
I think it’s been a little used
thrown to the ground
taken a pounding
it’s true
but with a little wax and polish
I think it might be good for you
there’s some cracks in the surface
where the light sometimes can still get through

so if you’re willing to make a deal
you can have it for a steal
it’s the same shade of black and blue
that it’s been from the start
if you’re looking for a barter, baby
I’ll trade you my heart

I don’t wear it out much
but if I do I like it on the sleeve
it’s been taught to forgive and forget
how to care and grieve
it’s been woke so long
I must admit it’s just a little sleepy
but the light turns on
if it ever gets dark or lonely
(or creepy)

so if you’re willing to take a chance
it still knows some tricks
it’ll even dance
sing and flail for you
before it falls apart

so if you’re looking for a barter, baby
looking for a bargain, baby
if you’re looking for a bargain, baby
I’ll trade you my heart
I’ll trade you my heart
I’ll trade you my heart

so if you’re willing to make a deal
you can have it for a steal
it’s the same shade of black and blue
that it’s been from the start

so if you’re looking for a barter, baby
looking for a barter, baby
if you’re looking for a bargain, baby
I’ll trade you my heart
I’ll trade you my heart
I’ll trade you my heart
