This is Soap Lyrics

[Verse 1: Melanie Martinez]
Think I just remembered something
I think I left the faucet running
Now my words are filling up the tub
Darling, you're just soaking in it
But I know you'll get out the minute
You notice all your fingers pruning up

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tired of being careful, tip toe, trying to keep the water warm
Let me under your skin

[Chorus; Brandon Urie]
If you love me let me go
If you love me let me go
Cause these words are knives
That often leave scars
The fear of falling apart
And truth be told I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
I feel it coming out my throat
Guess I better wash my mouth out with soap
God I wish I never spoke
Now I gotta wash my mouth out with soap
[Verse 2]
This is gospel for the vagabonds, never-do-wells and insufferable bastards
Confessing their apostasies led away by imperfect impostors

[Pre-Chorus 2]
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
Don’t try to sleep through the end of the world
And bury me alive
‘Cause I won’t give up without a fight

[Chorus; Brandon Urie]
If you love me let me go
If you love me let me go
Cause these words are knives
That often leave scars
The fear of falling apart
And truth be told I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
This is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
I feel it coming out my throat
Guess I better wash my mouth out with soap
God I wish I never spoke
Now I gotta wash my mouth out with soap

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
