Lyrics

Tell me who to be tonight
I want you to want to have me next to you
Tell me what to say tonight
I just want you satisfied

My plight is the silence between us black swan
I love you in spite of bad timing
I could be anything you want

I’m your diehard, backyard, bonfire
I’m your deep blue, belladonna, nightshade
I’m your starry-eyed, hillside songwriter
I could be your switchblade
Whatever you want babe
Anything you want

Tell me what to wear tonight
I want you to want me to turn you on
If we’re a long drive headed for a cliffside
Don’t stop the car babe, just let us jackknife

I’m your dive bar, dance floor, live wire
I’m your slow burn, centerfold, twin flame
I’m your anti-socialite wallflower
I could be your switchblade
Whatever you want babe
Anything you want

I’m your nightshade
I’m your landscape
I’m your twin flame
I’m your switchblade

I’m your nightshade
I’m your landscape
I’m your twin flame
I’m your switchblade

I’m so excited Switchblade is finally out! I wrote this song three years ago when I was 17 and for some reason never stopped playing it. I hope my teenage yearning brings you joy.

Xennial weighing in to say that I adore this song! Thoroughly modern but scratches that 90s itch. Nice little touch of an almost industrial layer. Beautiful lyrics and vocals. You have done everything I want
