MY BABY’S A WRECKING BALL

words by Kasey Anderson, music by Kasey Anderson and Andrew McKeag

my baby’s calm like evening on a sunday
but catch a spark, she got kerosene eyes
she’s an escalator ride, she only run one way
take you up, boy, she’ll leave you high
you’ll come crashing down and you’ll find yourself in pieces
we all tumble no matter how tall
you’ll start out standing but you’ll fall at her feet
my baby’s a wrecking ball

she’ll take you walking and kiss you on a corner
leave you breathing like your plane’s going down
then she’ll slip away like calm in the morning
and fade like a stain on a wedding gown
she’ll come like a storm and kiss you when you’re sleeping
shake your windows and rattle your walls
well it might sound strange but you’d better believe it
my baby’s a wrecking ball

she’ll spin you around ‘til you don’t remember
how you ever found your way back home
how you ever drew a breath without her
how you ever walked the world alone
now she’s smiling at you from a high-rise roof
if you follow her up, that’s a long way to fall
you said you ain’t scared but i know the truth
my baby’s a wrecking ball
