Show Me Yours
Tar...Feathers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can I come inside
Will you make my perspective wide
Make me forget my burden
And my strife

But we stayed out and smoked
I hide my breath with gum
Please whisper to me all your visions
Of what I can become

You don't need to know tonight
Secrets can be so divine
You tell me your tale and I
Tell you mine

It was nice to see
That you did things differently
Learn me to concur the world
Like you do

You don't need to know tonight
Secrets can be so divine
You tell me your tale and I
Tell you mine


You don't need to know tonight
Secrets can be so divine
You tell me your tale and I
Tell you mine

You don't need to know tonight
Secrets can be so divine




You tell me your tale and I
Tell you mine

I know it's a movie, but damn that's a horrible way to die.

@JOENOBODY exactly, the goal was to make them suffer. If they wanted to kill them, they wouldn't go to all that trouble.

JOENOBODY

Lot of the time it didn't kill the person. Just horrible horrible painful burns
