"Kali Ma" lyrics - NECK DEEP

NECK DEEP
"Kali Ma"
feat. Jeremy McKinnon

[Verse 1: Ben Barlow]
Sit still in the cold of February
Hold my hand in the cemetery and you'll be safe
And I know that this is only temporary
And I don't think that it's helping anything

[Pre-Chorus 1: Ben Barlow]
And it's all fun and games until someone gets fucked up
This will end in tears, I could never be enough for you
Count my blessings on one hand and my curses on the other
I let you slip between my fingers
Hide away until the summer

[Chorus: Ben Barlow]
Kali Ma lean over me
Rip your hand into my chest
Pull out my beating heart for the world to see
Then send me down to hell
You ignore my pleas
Indiana couldn't save me
So I guess I'll save myself

[Verse 2: Ben Barlow]
We hopped from bench to bench in the middle of our town
Where the streetlights hit your eyes and then the tears came falling down
The love that you confessed, a product of your loneliness
I see right through you, but what do I do?

[Pre-Chorus 2: Ben Barlow]
Of course I fall for it, just like I did when I was sixteen
Such a fool for you
Did you ever even miss me? Doubt it

[Chorus: Ben Barlow]
Kali Ma lean over me
Rip your hand into my chest
Pull out my beating heart for the world to see
Then send me down to hell
You ignore my pleas
Indiana couldn't save me
So I guess I'll save myself
Kali Ma lean over me
Rip your hand into my chest
Pull out my beating heart for the world to see
Oh, won't you go to hell?
(Go to hell!)

[Outro: Ben Barlow, Jeremy McKinnon, Both]
You're gonna get killed chasing after your damn fortune and glory
Maybe I, maybe I will
But not today!
