Kiss the lips and change your life
Watch out it's an open knife
Lady trouble, dressed in white
Sign away yourself tonight
Some have kissed the poison lips
Of trouble dressed in white
Always see her mirrored face
Beckoning with this and that
I have spent a fortune on
Things to ease my pain
Razors slashing in the night
Razors starting games
It's written in black
It's written in black
Put your soul inside a clock
Follow needs, you're always dead
Put your soul inside a clock
With the others living in black
Black
Black
Black
Kiss the lips and change your life
Lady trouble, dressed in white
Spend a fortune easing pain
Nothing really goes
Haunted by her mirrored face
She's running through your blood
Spend a fortune easing pain
Nothing really goes away
It's written in black
Living in black
Spend your fortunes easing pain
Nothing really goes away
Spend your fortunes easing pain
Nothing really goes away
