Black Lipstick
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't remember your name
I don't remember how we met
We made it home on the train
But after that, I just forget
You said life is a lie
(You said life is a lie)
As you laid down on the bed
Then you started to cry
(Then you started to cry)
You sang Bela Lugosi's dead
You left black lipstick
Black lipstick on my sheets
I don't remember your name
I don't remember how we met
Drunk fools in the rain
Was that a promise or just a threat?
You said you wanted to crawl
(You said you wanted to crawl)
To fall apart is the only way
Scratched onto the wall
(Scratched onto the wall)
Whispering, you don't need to stay
You left black lipstick
Black lipstick on my sheets
You left black lipstick
Black lipstick all over me
Breaking the mirrors to black out the vision
Breaking the mirrors so you'll never see
Breaking the mirrors so there's no decision
Breaking the mirrors so you'll never be alone
Alone, alone
I don't remember your name
You left black lipstick
Black lipstick on my sheets
You left black lipstick
Black lipstick all over me
