Pollyanna Flower Lyrics

(Through you I see I)

Between a broken nose and a fake smile

Between piety and gun powder

Between fighting and fleeing the scene

Between murder and diplomacy

Between agression and end of the odd

Between brutal and realistically well behaved

Between screaming and pulling in the reins

Between tiptoeing and ambleing

What am i to do with all this fire?

(I'd like to hate you but I'd never hate you)

Why are you still with me in this red space?

(I'd like to slap you but I'd never slap you)

(chorus)

Between violence and silently seething

Between my fist and my pollyanna flower

Between "fuck you" to your face and it's alright

Between war and denial (repeat)

Between flying vases and secretly weeping

Between loose cannons and ever downplaying

Between bruises and rudely differing

Between bursting and boiling

What am I to do with all this burning?

(I'd like to hurt you but I'd never hurt you)

Do I overwhelm you in this place?

(I'd like to kill you but I'd never kill you)

(chorus)

What am I to do with all this fire?

Can you understand me in this place?
