Let Your Earth Quake, Baby Lyrics
pull me from the cold and
pass me to your shoulders
keep me dry and warm
keep me high and normal
cause i'm riding in
your strut and
lying in your gutter
drunken and confused
ready for abuse
so let your earth quake, baby
push me to the ground and
break my ears of sound
i have never heard
i have never deserved
keep me deaf and muted
slap me til i'm stupid
i'm dying for your hand
i'd die to understand
so let your earth quake
go ahead and break me
my skin invincible
you can't phase me
i will take whatever
you give me
if you pour i'll be the sieve
and i will filter just to live
so let your earth quake
baby you know me
i surrender completely
and slowly
i'm feeling like a genius
i pound the wall
i've built between us
my hammer tears
with my come
i will repair
i deposit what i've felt
in the winter i can sell it
it grows in the cold
until the soil is eroded
so let your earth quake
go ahead and break me
my skin invincible
you can't phase me
i will take whatever you give me
if you pour i'll be the sieve
and i will filter just to live
so let your earth quake
baby you know me
i surrender completely
and slowly
pass me to your shoulders
keep me dry and warm
keep me high and normal
your strut and
lying in your gutter
drunken and confused
ready for abuse
break my ears of sound
i have never heard
i have never deserved
slap me til i'm stupid
i'm dying for your hand
i'd die to understand
go ahead and break me
my skin invincible
you can't phase me
you give me
if you pour i'll be the sieve
and i will filter just to live
so let your earth quake
baby you know me
i surrender completely
and slowly
i pound the wall
i've built between us
my hammer tears
with my come
i will repair
in the winter i can sell it
it grows in the cold
until the soil is eroded
go ahead and break me
my skin invincible
you can't phase me
if you pour i'll be the sieve
and i will filter just to live
so let your earth quake
baby you know me
i surrender completely
and slowly

this song is fun
I love the line "I will take whatever you give me if you pour i'll be the sieve and i will filter just to live ." Poetic genius!
love these lyrics!!
hahaha
i always thought it was:
"push me to the ground and rape my ears with sound."
but i guess this way is good, too.
this is definitely about putting up with abuse- maybe domestic violence or something.
