Verse 1
Late night glow on your skin
City hush, let the quiet sink in
Every word tastes like sin,
Sweet and slow, just like Berlin.
White dress, cigarette smoke,
Blue lights bleed through the blinds,
Gold rings, the way you look at me—
Like love’s never been kind.
Pre-chorus
You lean close, I lose my breath,
Feel my halo start to slip,
In your eyes, I see my death
And I still yearn for it.
Chorus
You hit me soft like velvet,
Then you turn and twist the blade
Every kiss is delicate,
Like a beautiful demise.
Slow dance under bad decisions,
Guilty hands, but no regret,
You call me the sinner,
While you play the saint.
I bleed in shades of pleasure,
You pray with fingers crossed
Say love is just a lesson,
But I’m paying every cost
Verse 2
You taste like heaven, talk like war, pull me under, ask for more,
I drown in you, you stay so clean,
Washing your hands of everything.
Angels hum while the night goes thin,
Love feels holy right before the sin—
Bridge
Ooh— the choir hums my name in the dark,
Salt on my lips, you left your mark,
I loved you quiet, I loved you wrong,
Like an old hymn played too long.
Final chorus
You hit me soft like velvet, then you twist the blade,
Call it love, call it fate, call it a game,
Every kiss tastes holy, ends in pain,
A beautiful demise I can’t escape.
Slow dance where the roses decay,
You wear the light, I take the blame,
If love was truth, it led me astray,
If destiny’s just a cruel charade,
I burned for you, you stayed unscathed.
Outro
I loved you hard, I loved you slow,
Now you’re just a ghost I know.
