Dark Love

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

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

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

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

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

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
