Desperate Things
She was doing 60 in a 35

I hit the lights and pulled her over

There was blood from her mouth
她嘴里有血
Dry on her shoulder
血印在肩膀上干涸
I've never had much patience for guys that hit
我一向对打人的家伙没什么耐心
For more than just obvious reasons
找各种理由来家暴的家伙
I asked if she wanted me to take him in

She laughed it off like lemonade

You can be blinded by your own heart
