Melanie Martinez - Needle and Thread lyrics

Think it's time I cut the
Line and lift the blinds
And pull myself together
Took too long to move along
It feels so wrong to abandon all the effort

Bringing out the blade and
Trimming all the strands
Tying all the loose ends
Pulling rubber bands
Thimble on my thumb, there's a mess when
Covering the blood on his hands
Can't believe I fell for it
Turning all the screws
Never really worked, it always wouldn't do
All the corridors we went through
Only led me right back to you

As long as we're connected by
Thread on shredded fabric
Gonna wanna patch it, stitch it back together


Wear you like a sweater, baby
As long as we're entangled
My feelings will unravel
Wouldn't it be easy? Fix it with a needle
Wear you like a sweater, baby

It's too hard
I'm hanging on just by the yarn
Uncover all the lessons
There's no harm in tearing off broken cloth
To sever the connection

Bringing out the blade and
Trimming all the strands
Tying all the loose ends
Pulling rubber bands
Thimble on my thumbnails is a mess, man
Covering the blood on his hands

As long as we're connected by
Thread on shredded fabric
Gonna wanna patch it, hide under the covers
Hold you like a blanket, baby
As long as we're entangled
My feelings will unravel
Wouldn't it be easy? Come back to the comfort
Hold you like a blanket, baby

As long as we're connected by
Thread on shredded fabric
Gonna wanna hang it, sew a tapestry
Stare at it forever, baby
As long as we're entangled
My feelings will unravel
Why can't it be easy? Sew a tapestry
Look at you forever, baby
