[Intro]
Teeth sharp
Eyes red
Moon up
Hands bled
[low vocal register]Yeah[/low vocal register]
I’m that
[Verse 1]
Crawled out the club like a coffin cracked
Black hoodie, black nails, with a backpack
Lip ring lookin’ like a silver fang
Heartbeat drum, panic when the bass bang
Cross on your neck start burnin’ hot
You say “run home,” I say “why not?”
I drink your fear like a cherry wine
Tattoo on my throat say “don’t waste time”
[Chorus]
I’m your ash boy, vampire night
Bite my tongue, still taste the fight
Bleeding love on the bathroom tile
You like the pain, I like your smile
Ash boy, ash boy, set me alight
Turn your halo charcoal bright
If we both burn out by sunrise
At least we lived like we’d already died
[Verse 2]
Chain on my jeans drag sparks on the pavement
You’re in my hoodie like a cursed little blanket
Kiss in the alley, smell smoke on your hair
You call it toxic, I call it fair
You pray for peace, I pray for a riot
Your angel voice tellin’ my demons “quiet”
But I just laugh with a mouth full of red
“Baby, we’re alive when we’re close to dead”
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[whispered vocals]Count the scars on my neck, that’s math[/whispered vocals]
Every mark from a love gone bad
You trace ’em slow like a roadmap back
To every night we crashed, we crashed
You say “promise me you’ll change someday”
I say “yeah” then I pull you in anyway
If heaven ever asks why you’re sent below
Tell ’em it was worth it just to lose control
[Chorus]
