Josh Pyke - Private Education lyrics

So it's a private education,

and it's not getting any easier,

but if it's any indication,

well I feel a little weaker now.

And it's a private education,

so I present you with your degree.

A degree of separation goes a long long way when schooling me.

So forgive me for what I have done,

and forgive me for what I might do,

and redeem me to everyone,

as I submit myself to you.

You could wear me 'round like your best dress and I wouldn't mind,

you could ruin me in one long night and then cast me aside,

you could turn your mind back to your past and I couldn't change your heart,

or kiss your scars,

or find your heat there in the dark, dark, dark, dark, dark.

So it's a private education,

and I'm feeling like an innocent.

Though I feel a little guilty now,

since I've sinned against myself again.

So forgive me for what I have done,

and forgive me for what I might do,

and redeem me to everyone,

as I submit myself to you.

You could wear me 'round like your best dress and I wouldn't mind,

you could ruin me in one long night and then cast me aside,

you could turn your mind back to your past and I couldn't change your heart,

or kiss your scars,

or find your heat there in the dark.

I wanna learn you good,

I wanna read your text,

I wanna cut you deeper,

wanna cut you best.

Now my cautionary ways are swept aside,

I fear you not,

all my past disclaimers and alibis,

I've now forgot,

you could turn your mind back to your past and I couldn't change your heart,

or kiss your scars,

or find your heat there in the dark.

So it's a private education,

and it's not getting any cheaper,

I wear the cost around like a wound, and I'll try not to bleed all over you.
