Lyrics of Million Dollar Houses (The Painter) by Pierce the Veil
verse
So what if I was just a painter
Painting houses on the rich blue coast?
Would you ever try to leave me
For somebody who deserves you most?
'Cause darling, I am just a painter
I'm painting houses for the rich old folks
I'm gonna make a million dollars
'Cause nobody's gonna steal you, no
For diamonds and gold
For diamonds and gold
chorus
'Cause I've broken bones for you and for you only
I make money but we just can't keep this home
Give me your heart and your hand and we can run
(We can run, we can run, we can run now)
(We can run, we can run, run)
verse
She's like a bullet through an ocean
I still remember how you moved so slow
You tried to kill me with your shotgun
Bang! Now we're even
We don't stop 'til someone's bleeding
We don't stop 'til someone's bleeding
chorus
I've broken bones for you and for you only
I make money but we just can't keep this home
Give me your heart and your hand and we can run
We can run, we can run, we can run now
We can run, we can run, baby, you're my hope
verse
Permanently yours
Sometimes the moon looks brighter than the sun
As times like this run up my wrists
She hates all of the guts and blood
Splash around with me
While we move like flames on burning sheets
Your doctor won't stop calling me (her medication)
verse
But baby, no, sometimes things
Don't work out the way we've planned
To live is just to fall asleep, to die is to awaken
verse
Maybe we're meant to lose the ones we love
But I'll fight for you 'til then
And if they stole you from me
On my arm there's a tattoo of your name
chorus
I've broken bones for you and for you only
I make money but fuck money, we want love
Give me your heart and your hand and we can run
(We can run)
(We can run)
We can run, run
Writer(s): Michael Fuentes, Victor Fuentes
