Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You walked in Last call for sinners Black lace Red wine on your lips Every eye turned Mine stopped breathing Like I’d stepped off the eclipse You laughed Said you don’t do forever I said “I don’t do the sun” Two lost causes in a backroom corner Sharing secrets Sharing blood [Chorus] Let me give you a clue I would rather have a stake in my heart Than exist without you Drive it in Drive it through the dark If I’m cursed Let the curse be you I would rather have a stake in my heart Than exist without you (than exist without you) [Verse 2] We dance close in the after-hours silence Your pulse loud against my chest You say love feels like a slow collision I say it feels like holy death Your eyes dare me “Would you really risk it?” I grin Teeth sharp in the gloom (oh yeah) “Name the ruin I’ll go deeper Every night I’ll choose this doom” [Chorus] Let me give you a clue I would rather have a stake in my heart Than exist without you Drive it in Drive it through the dark If I’m cursed Let the curse be you I would rather have a stake in my heart Than exist without you (than exist without you) [Bridge] If the morning comes And it burns us clean I will hold your hand through the screaming light If the heavens judge what we’ve done tonight I will stand accused And I won’t fight (hey!) [Chorus] Let me give you a clue I would rather have a stake in my heart Than exist without you Drive it in Drive it through the dark If I’m cursed Let the curse be you I would rather have a stake in my heart Than exist without you [Outro] So raise your glass to the doomed and devoted One last kiss in the funeral room If I turn to dust in your arms this evening Know I chose every ounce of you

Verses stay hushed over minor-key arpeggios; chorus explodes with octave guitars, crash cymbals, and stacked harmonies on the hook. Bridge pulls back to tremolo guitar and whispered vocal before a climactic final chorus., ballad, romantic
