Killing Lights
We're all alive tonight,
Dancing toe to toe with the end of times,
Tossing our bodies onto mattresses --
I should get home,
But I think I'll spend the night instead.
Forgive me if tomorrow
I live on inside your head.
Finding new lips to replace yours
Could take a lifetime.
New hearts are breaking in the room above,
My dear, I've been mistaken,
All those other times it wasn't love --
This is love.
Summer bodies tangled in the sheets,
Wake up to share a sunrise cigarette
And bask in each others body heat.
The night is blurry, But I can't forget
Finding new stars in the sky
No one knew of yet.
And we could taste the constellations --
Drink the milky way --
But I'd rather taste your lips on mine any day.
Like strings that need playing,
I need your hand in mind.
Promise me you'll stay,
And I'll kill the lights a second time.
