Lyrics

Pocket

I'd fold myself so small to fit into your pocket
You carry me around, take me out when you wanted
You'd wanna breathe me in, like I'm some kind of substance
Keep me in your snuff ring
Where you'd put things you're loving (where you'd put things you're loving)

I'd make exceptions to my rules for you
I'd forget who I am for you
I'd ruin every plan for you
I forgot how to stand 'cause I stood for you
Make exceptions to my rules for you
I'd forget who I am for you
I'm a better man than you
I forgot how to stand 'cause I stood for you

I stood for you
I stood for you, I stood for you
I stood for you, I stood for you
I stood for you, I stood for you
I stood for you, I stood for you

My internal dialogue makes me so hesitant
You said if I trust you, I'd jump when you did
And you kept a score, but I kept a promise
You think you're a God
You think you're a prophet

I'd make exceptions to my rules for you
I'd forget who I am for you
I'd ruin every plan for you
I forgot how to stand 'cause I stood for you
Make exceptions to my rules for you
I'd forget who I am for you
I'm a better man than you
I forgot how to stand 'cause I stood for you
'Cause I stood for you
'Cause I stood for you
I forgot how to stand 'cause I stood for you

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

You said hurting me would be sacrilege
Hurting me would be sacrilege
But that didn't stop you now in the end
That didn't stop you now in the end
You said hurting me would be sacrilege
Hurting me would be sacrilege
That didn't stop you now in the end
That didn't stop you now in the end

I'd make exceptions to my rules for you
I'd forget who I am for you
I'd ruin every plan for you
I forgot how to stand 'cause I stood for you
Make exceptions to my rules for you
I'd forget who I am for you
I'm a better man than you
Now I can stand and it's not for you

Poppy has no interest in proving how metal she is

Poppy is already bracing for the tired authenticity tests - and has zero interest in passing them. Her swaggering new album 'Empty Hands' turns fury into something exhilarating, with tenderness and resolve flickering beneath the blast.
