[Verse 1]
You kiss like a promise
You lie like a prayer
You say that you’re careful
With teeth on my despair
Midnight on your tongue
You taste like old regret
You’re tracing every bruise
Like a map you won’t forget
[Chorus]
This is dark love
Sweet venom in a wine glass
Burn my name into your breath
Till there’s nothing of me left
Yeah
It’s dark love
You’re the wound I keep on choosing
If losing you is saving me
Then I don’t want to be free
[Verse 2]
You call when you’re broken
I crawl when I’m sane
You spin me like a story
Then swear you’ll never change
Your shadow on my pillow
Your number in my veins
I’m praying for a miracle
While dialing you again
[Chorus]
This is dark love
Sweet venom in a wine glass
Burn my name into your breath
Till there’s nothing of me left
Yeah
It’s dark love
You’re the wound I keep on choosing
If losing you is saving me
Then I don’t want to be free
[Bridge]
You say “forever”
With your hand on the door (oh)
You say I’m better
Then you leave me wanting more
If heaven wouldn’t have us
I’d still follow you down
Just to feel you break me
One more time
[Chorus]
This is dark love
Sweet venom in a wine glass
Burn my name into your breath
Till there’s nothing of me left
Yeah
It’s dark love
You’re the wound I keep on choosing
If losing you is saving me
Then I don’t want to
Don’t want to be free
