Delicate Creatures Lyrics by Scarves

Delicate Creatures

2022

[Verse 1]
Jackie is a delicate creature
Covered up in tattoos of tougher ones
Ain't it weird how it's in our nature
To desire? To be dangerous?
Just 'cause you got an image of a switchblade on your shoulder
That don't make you a killer

[Chorus]
You'd gone off leash
Well beyond your boundaries
And just like every other wild thing
You will be punished just for existing

[Verse 2]
Jackie spent the last decade
Digging her fingers into the clay
Just hoping something gorgeous might take shape
To prove that she exists
Her brother, the astronomer, says
"We are all just tiny comets
Up against one big rock
We can't do much damage, but
Together, we just might make an impact”

[Chorus]
You'd gone off leash
Well beyond your boundaries
And just like every other wild thing
You will be punished just for existing
Sure, you can howl at the moon
Or break bottles against the concrete
It won't make a difference
If no one else is listening

[Bridge]
And it's hard to stay soft
When you're surrounded by such sharp teeth
And it's hard to stay calm
When you feel just like fresh meat
And it's hard to stay soft
It's hard to stay soft
It's hard to stay soft
When you feel just like fresh meat

[Chorus]
You'd gone off leash
Well beyond your boundaries
And just like every other wild thing
You will be punished just for existing

[Outro]
We are just tiny comets
We are just tiny comets
We are just tiny comets
Up against one big rock
And I hope you make an impact
