Maybe if you’d close your eyes
You might be able to hear
The colours of these words
See love is red ‘cause it always hurts
I wonder if you feel it like I do
Skin like silk and a heart like a rose in bloom
And you know I want it
I want it bad
‘cause it’ll be the last thing that I’ll ever have
But if “closer to you” means “further from me”
Then I’ll close my eyes until the dark’s all I see
‘cause I’d rather be here by myself than live life as someone else

Love is the cancer and love is the cure
A fruit as sour as it is pure
I should let it be
I should let it rot
But my heart is weak
And her skin so soft
Close the curtains
Let me walk beneath the earth
The future's uncertain
But I will be there when it hurts
And from the first moment I knew it was you
Never knew one look could break a spine in two
You softly sing a song of how you don't belong and now I feel it too
So I'll let your gentle hands crush my fragile heart
And I know the pain will grow every second we're apart
But I won't ever leave you
I'd die a million nights
Just to make you mine
And I'll burn the tree
And spit on every book
Curse myself
So I will need you more
I keep coughing up blood
Since the last time we spoke
Love is the knife
That's slitting my throat.

Slow Dance

Slow dancing fades to coffee breath
Cast away clothes ‘cause they only hold you back
I live for your lips and I’ll die sinking into your neck
Slow dance with me
Sun fades and they all go to sleep
Cast away your tiredness
As I dig my fingers into your skin
Your blood’s ablaze
As they sink deeper in
And I know we won’t ever sleep
The ceiling’s full of stars
And your glass full of gold
Teeth sinking into glowing skin
Your heart’s ablaze
As we sink deeper in
To
The
Sheets
We live in a cloud now
Your fist clenched as you grasp for air
I can feel it now
Can you feel it too?
Swear we’re just one soul that’s been split in two

Sun

I can hear it
Their soft slithering
I can hear it from miles away
Our hands tied,we keep crawling, but the grass is swarming with snakes
And every time they sing it’s the same old song
And every single time it's been getting worse
And I can’t stand it
Can’t stand to see you waste away
And I know I should let it go
So I traded the sun for a life of smoke
But it ain’t helping
‘cause I can hear the slithering from miles away
Oh I hear the wind and it talks about
You
Just lay in the grass
Both their legs and their mouths run fast
But if the pain ever gets too much
Just tell me what you need and I’ll make sure it’s done
‘cause this is us, and we ain’t them
Curtains closed, don’t need to see the sun again
And I know I should let it go, I know
LOVE

Casket
04:02
|

Triple beam on the table ‘cause I want to know the weight
That I’ve been dragging around lately
We built a house on quicksand
And I’ve been dragging my feet to the door
You see
I want out
Please let me go so I can sleep
I’m building a casket for you and me
Fill it with our memories
This is forever
I’ll be there
If you’ll stay
here
Summer never seemed as cold as it did last year
The sand is warm and now I’m almost there
I’m eating shards of broken glass
I’ll ignore the pain for as long as it lasts
I’m holding on to holding on
You were always there
Always gone
Love is love
So I’ll let it rot
Love is love
And it’s all I’ve got

All your fears
Let me take them away
Promises on promises
Hoping you'd stay
Words whispered in the dark
I'll draw the flame, but I need a spark
Come closer
Feel the beating of a heart
All my love, you can take it away
I'd give everything just to make you stay
If it won't begin
It can never end
But we've grown far too close to call you a friend
Come closer
So let it begin
And pray it never ends
Or it's a skeleton
You'll call your friend
See
We could be
So much better than them
If you'd just hold the flame
Between your hands
It might be warm enough for
The both of us
And it scares me
But what I fear most
Is living my entire life
In love with a ghost
And I'll let it burn
I'll let it consume me
Let it tear the flesh from my bones
'cause you already see through me
