Menace Lyrics by Maya Hawke

Blush

2020

[Verse 1]
Turn my gaze away
Relieve the impressions
That I've made
Like rain in my creeping hand
I want to behave
It's a small concession
All my regressions
I don't understand
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But they're painful old news
And pale in comparison
To choosing you
[Chorus]
Well, I don't wanna be a menace anymore
What could a menace be good for?
So I will catch my wandering eye, watch the roses pass me by
And I'll try to make my menace into someone you'd adore
[Verse 2]
It's dangerous and short
Covertly calls for
An encore
The attention of strangers
As long as loving lasts
You don't want to
Here forever
Everybody loves a lover
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Well, you really shouldn't ask
'Cause the answer's always, "Always"
'Til always is in the past
[Chorus]
Well, I don't wanna be a menace anymore
What could a menace be good for?
So I will catch my wandering eye and watch the roses pass me by
And I'll try to make my menace into someone you'd adore
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Well, you really shouldn't ask
'Cause the answer's always, "Always"
'Til always is in the past
[Chorus]
Well, I don't wanna be a menace anymore
What could a menace be good for?
So I will catch my wandering eye, watch the roses pass me by
No, I don't wanna be a menace anymore
What could a menace be good for?
So I will catch my wandering eye, watch the roses pass me by
And I'll try to make my menace into someone you'd adore
