Psyche's Dagger Lyrics

Meet me at the back porch
I'd like to get to know you more
Saw that you're good lookin
And maybe it'll be interesting
Me and my friend Apollo
He said that you're from out of state
But I already knew that though
I felt right away

That you were more like some gypsy lover I knew from some other place
What your sisters do not know
What your sisters they do not know
I can show you some places that are gonna be great
Gimme some love gimme some love
Gimme some love c'mon gimme some love

Stab me with your dagger
I knew way in the light
Went up to my momma
She hates you cuz you're beautiful
I'm locked up in my bedroom
I thought this wound would never heal
I'm bustin out the window though
I got to get away

Ay baby!
I gotta know
Would you sort through all these seeds for me?
Would you cross over the river to find the golden fleece for me?
Would you fill a flask full of that holy water just for me?
Would you go down, down, down, down to the depths of Hades lookin for me?

Cuz you were more like some gypsy lover I knew from some other place
What your sisters do not know
What your sisters they do not know
I can show you some places that are gonna be great
Gimme some love gimme some love
Gimme some love

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song reminds me of being young. This song reminds me of beautiful women. This song reminds me of parties.....I think this song should remind everyone of all of those things.

This song is about the story of Cupid and Psyche. Cupids mother is angry that Psyche is so beautiful that mortals are calling her the second coming of Venus. Cupid accidentally scratches himself with an arrow meant to make psyche fall in love with an evil flying sex snake who will impregnate her to eat the newborn children. he falls madly in love with her. He kidnaps her and essentially rapes her until she falls in love with him. Cupid is always under the cover of darkness so as to not reveal his embarrassing identity and let the gods know he has failed his mission. she becomes pregnant. her sisters meanwhile hear that Psyche has been forced in love with an evil sex serpent and tell her to look at her lover/rapist but bring a dagger to kill him when she sees its an evil creature. it turns out to be Cupid, she shocked! she accidentally drops the hot lamp oil on him, searing Cupid. Cupid runs away in a bloody burnt mess. Psyche gets kidnapped by Venus and sent to do horrible things like sorting seeds, crossing a river, getting holy water, going to Hades, all the while always failing at her consistent attempts at suicide. she tries to kill hersolf soooo many times its ridiculous that she keeps failing so many times. Anyways, her sisters find out that Psyche is in a bad situation with venus enslaving her and whatnot. the sisters are insanely jealous and throw themselves off cliffs to be Cupid's "replacements" of sorts for the missing and distressed Psyche. Instead of being saved by Cupid and transported to the place of the gods Cupid allows them to fall to their death. each of the sisters leave behind their families and husbands :( at some point Cupid saves psyche from his mother and she is at some point in the story accidentally stabed with one of Cupids arrows and falls in love with Cupid as well even though he's been raping her on the reg. (I don't know why Cupid didn't just get her with the arrow earlier in the story it would have saved so much ink) they eventualy are married and psyche gets made Immortal. Ta da. Mythology. and now Cupid is a Valentine's day thing. WTF
