[Verse 1]
Degrade me, my purpose
Bury me beneath the surface
I'm scratching, I'm clawing
Trying hard to make them pay
Can't stand me, beside me
Kid you not, your kiss sure killed me
The cold of my barrel
Never sees the light of day

[Chorus]
Call me, call me, you could only hurt the story
Call me, call me, I'll be there to shine a light

[Verse 2]
The smell on the speakers
Sweaty ballroom dancing fever
They gather in numbers
Ever for a closer view
The ceasefire the weaker
Hair so red I couldn't keep her
The dogs hound the neighbors
Everything was blown away

[Chorus]
Call me, call me, you could only hurt the story
Call me, call me, I'll be there to shine a light
Machine, machines, point me to the nearest party
You'll see, you'll see, baby, it's the only way
[Outro]
Call me, call me, you could only—
Call me, call me, I'll be there—
Machines, machines, point me to the nearest party
