A Georgia rain just kissed my lips
I live, I live for moments like this
Steady the rein, girl
I know you won't miss
I wish that you would aim for the blood of my heart, yeah

And you know what you're doing
You know that it hurts
The worst, but I stand through the pain of it all
I'll follow you down to the edge of this earth, earth, earth

In the name of love, I'll follow you
You fit me like a glove when I'm inside of you
And if my body's dead and cold, I'd die for you
In the name of love, I'll kill for

I'll kill for you

Your eyes, they could cut through diamonds and steel
For real, they're sharper than the blade in your hand
They tell me you're strong, but they don't tell me what you feel
I feel there's something that you want me to hear
It's coming in loud and clear
You know what you want, what you want, what you want

In the name of love, I'll follow you
You fit me like a glove when I'm inside of you
And if my body's dead and cold, I'd die for you
In the name of love, I'll kill for

Sticks and stones break my bones
But bullet holes, you know they can't hurt me
Invincible, unbreakable, unstoppable
I'll show you who's worthy
You grab the gun, I'll take the wheel
F*ck the world, my love is real
F*ck the world, my love is real
F*ck the world, this love is real

Shit's real, I need you to aim straight for my heart
And if you're gonna miss then hit my head and leave a permanent scar
You're fatal but I love who you are
Be my death or my forever
You're my little bloodfeather
Bloodfeather

In the name of love, I'll follow you
You fit me like a glove when I'm inside of you
And if my body's dead and cold, I'd die for you
In the name of love, I'll kill for
