Tongue like a threat by evoman - Zona

Lyrics

[VERSE 1]

You pull me by the collar to the edge of your bed

Smile like a warning sign, tilt your head

You say, “don’t touch, just look, just sweat”

While you trace my jaw like you’re placing a bet

You drag your nails down, stop right at my chest

Say, “I like you better when you’re out of breath”

Every inch closer, but you still won’t let

Me have a taste of what you soak in those pants

[PRE]

You kiss my neck, then pull away, laughing

You know exactly what you’re doing, it’s a habit

[CHORUS]

You got a tongue like a threat, baby, say my name slow

Every syllable hits like a blade on my throat

You don’t even have to touch, I’m already a mess

Just watching that mouth, watching those lips

You lean in close like you’re granting me death

Yeah, you got a tongue like a threat

[VERSE 2]

I sit on your lap, but you’re facing the door

Whisper every dirty thing that you’re saving me for

Hands behind your back, but your words don’t quit

Painting pictures of your body wrapped around my hips

You say, “maybe later, if you play nice”

Then you bite my ear like you’re rolling dice

Every little promise that you drip, drip, drip

Got me praying for the moment that your spine finally flips

[PRE]

You lick your lips, then pull away, laughing

You know exactly what you’re doing, it’s a habit

[CHORUS]

You got a tongue like a threat, baby, say my name slow

Every syllable hits like a blade on my throat

You don’t even have to touch, I’m already a mess

Just watching that mouth, watching those lips

You lean in close like you’re granting me death

Yeah, you got a tongue like a threat

[BRIDGE – SOFT]

(soft)

Tell me what you’re gonna do, but don’t do it yet

Make me beg for every second, every drop of your sweat

Keep me tied up in your voice ‘til I forget my head…

(Whisper soft)

THEN PUT YOUR MOUTH WHERE YOUR PROMISES LED

[BREAKDOWN] (whisper)

TEETH ON MY SKIN, NO MERCY, NO REST

SAY YOU’RE GONNA RUIN ME, MAKE GOOD ON THE THREAT

PULL ME UNDER ‘TIL I CAN’T CATCH BREATH

DROWN ME IN THE WORDS YOU’VE BEEN HOLDING IN YOUR CHEST

IF I BLACK OUT WITH YOUR NAME ON MY LIPS

AT LEAST I DIED OF SOMETHING LIKE THIS

[FINAL CHORUS]

You got a tongue like a threat, baby, say my name slow

Every syllable hits like a blade on my throat

Now your hands are on my neck and your mouth’s on my chest

Every kiss cashing in every tease, every text

If this is how you kill me, go on, take that step

Yeah, you got a tongue like a threat
