In darkness, you're all around me
I know our future, I feel your body
What if I told you that I planned this?
What if I want to lose control?
What if I take the blame and become the drug
And dissolve as you swallow?
Covered in your silhouette
Elated for your bitter end
Don't hide the shame from our lips
Glowing in amber, burn in sin
Against the wall we fall from grace
The pain we love is taking shape
A burning lust to touch the flame
Over and over again
We've played this role a thousand times
The same old script, just different lies
You disappear without a trace
Concealing the crimes on your face
Beneath all the pleasure, all you are is pain
And you deserve every second of your suffering
But yet I can't stop, crawling to your doorstep
Every time you beckon
I'm self destructing, trust in nothing
Save me
You burn like a cigarette
I took my time to suck you in
So take me out of my head
And spread your ashes on my skin
Against the wall we fall from grace
The pain we love is taking shape
A burning lust to touch the flame
Over and over again
We play this role a thousand times
The same old script, just different lies
You disappear without a trace
Concealing the crimes on your face
Fall
Your skin like winter, I felt you shiver
I heard you whisper but the pills were quicker
I watched you wither, I am the killer
Against the wall we fall from grace
The pain we love is taking shape
A burning lust to touch the flame
Over and over again
We beg like dirt and flesh disarms
We built it up, to fall apart
Even the honesty was fake
Concealing the crimes on your face
