[Verse 1]
Red wine on the radiator
Lip print on a crooked glass
You trace circles on the table
Like you’re drawing out my past
Velvet dress
Frayed at the shoulder
Your smile
A razor in the dark
You say my name a little slower
Till it sounds just like a scar
[Chorus]
Sink your velvet teeth in
Drag me through the ceiling
I don’t wanna wake up
If this is how it feels
Breath on my confession
Hands around my question
Twist me
Break the meaning
Till every little word kneels
[Verse 2]
Ash stain on the bedsheet corner
Boot heels by the open door
You talk sweet like a confession
But your eyes count every war
You play saint with dirty fingers
Halo made of cigarette smoke
You take heaven by the throat now
Just to hear the angels choke (oh)
[Chorus]
Sink your velvet teeth in
Drag me through the ceiling
I don’t wanna wake up
If this is how it feels
Breath on my confession
Hands around my question
Twist me
Break the meaning
Till every little word kneels
[Bridge]
[Mandolin tremolo
Distant and eerie
Under hushed vocal]
Whisper sins into my ribs
Let them bloom beneath my skin
Say you’ll leave
Then say it slower
Make the promise taste like sin (yeah)
[Chorus]
Sink your velvet teeth in
Drag me through the ceiling
I don’t wanna wake up
If this is how it feels
Breath on my confession
Hands around my question
Twist me
Break the meaning
Till every little word kneels
[Outro]
Keep your shadow on my shoulder
Brand your echo to my spine
If this poison keeps me under
Pour it
Lover
One more time
