Candlelit Lyrics - Frightened Rabbit

Love's checkered past 

Is littered with violent acts 

And the blood that fills kindless paths 

Each drop drawn in her name. 

In this modern age 

The image of father has changed 

But if you're ready I'm willing to wage a gut-wrenched war 

For a minute of your time 

I'm done playing stone paper scissors 

Gonna take that stone and bring them all down with it 

Steal some scissors and cut some throats 

Put pen to paper and write you a note 

I won't get in line 

I will not wait for this. 

With my bare hands I kill 

Just to be candlelit 

with you.

I have no checkered past 

And I've never been a violent man 

Maybe you've changed all that 

Each scar I carve is in your name 

So let the suitors come 

I can see them off one by one 

Open every last artery up 

Just for a second of your time. 

I'm done playing stone paper scissors 

Gonna take that stone and bring them all down with it. 

Steal those scissors and cut some throats 

Put pen to paper and write you a note 

I won't get in line 

I will not wait for this. 

With my bare hands I kill 

Just for the privilege

Look at the blood bath 

Look at the mess I have made 

With my bare hands I kill 

Just to be candlelit with you.
