[Verse 1]
Late train
Rain on the glass keeps counting
All the ways
You never said my name
Cold tea
Lipstick ghosts on the rim
I keep tracing
Every almost
Every when
[Chorus]
This thing called love
Has teeth in my chest
Bleeding me slow
While I beg for the rest
I’m losing my mind
For a touch
For a rush
For a crumb
I’m burning alive
For this cruel
Sweet
Cursed thing called love
[Verse 2]
You call
Half past two
Voice shaking
Say you’re drunk
Say you’re “better off alone”
I laugh
Lie and say I understand
But I’m begging
For the ache to be my home
[Chorus]
This thing called love
Has teeth in my chest
Bleeding me slow
While I beg for the rest
I’m losing my mind
For a touch
For a rush
For a crumb
I’m burning alive
For this cruel
Sweet
Cursed thing called love
[Bridge]
Pull me closer
Just to break my spine (so soft)
Kiss me sober
Then deny you tried
I’m not angry
I’m addicted to the knife
Cut me open
Just to prove I’m still alive (still alive)
[Chorus]
This thing called love
Has teeth in my chest
Bleeding me dry
And I still say “yes”
I’m losing my mind
For a glimpse
For a taste
For your thumb
Pressed into my pulse
Oh this cruel
Sweet
Cursed thing called love
(thing called love)
This cruel
Sweet
Cursed thing called love
