In the centre of the town the sky Seems starless all we can do is climb And I'll wake in the mortuary With a taste for those Ketamine queens
But could we burn darlin'? Like fires in the night Bloodless inferno incinerates All hopes and dreams but ours
Damn it I know how pathetic I sound But I'm scratching for the cash to bring you round Would gold, could gold quench Your lusting for more And my envy ridden core
But could we burn darlin'? Like fires in the night Swear I'll forgive you Then the only hitch will be Forgiving me (For those I've killed)
And I can hear the sound of something moving in the back They're having sex on the floor, and I'm reminded of that Bloodsucking pious preacher peeling off your dress With every scratch that they scrape and every laceration
I can't hear the voice of reason anymore I'm the prince of the hypocrites all bloated and drunk But there's still time
But could we burn darlin'? Like fires in the night Their eyes shine like gaslight Their fingers gag my throat If I could get away, I'd do anything to save you and say Could we burn darlin'? Like colliding meteorites They say I'm broken But I promise I can stay with you a while...
