Lyrics

Shrinkin Violet

Never come together before

Everybody answered the door

Inside riots

Did the worst thing I could do

I fell for somethin' cool in you

I can't even try it

Shrinkin' violet

Shrinkin' violet

Be my pilot

Shrinkin' violet

Well I had a little think of my own

Put it down - leave it alone

Please stay silent

I've confused the solitude

Seein' things now in the way you move

My heart don't know this

Tryna keep that quiet

Shrinkin violet

Shrinkin violet

Be my pilot

Shrinkin violet

Shrinkin violet

Bе my pilot

Shrinkin violet

I can't stand your kindness
