[Verse 1]
You carved your vows
In the back of my throat
Every kiss
Tastes like cutthroat hope
You said "forever"
With a clenched white fist
I keep coming back
For the blade I miss
[Chorus]
Burn
Beautiful venom
Running through my veins
Love like loaded bullets
Dressed up in my name
Hold me in your barbed-wire arms
Tear me just enough
Hate me
Then you heal me
This is venom blood love
[Verse 2]
You light the match
Then you flood my lungs
Call me your sin
Then you hold your tongue
I wear your teeth
Like a secret crown
You break me open
Just to drink me down
[Chorus]
Burn
Beautiful venom
Running through my veins
Love like loaded bullets
Dressed up in my name
Hold me in your barbed-wire arms
Tear me just enough
Hate me
Then you heal me
This is venom blood love
[Bridge]
Spit my name
Like a curse
Like a prayer (hey!)
Cut me deep
Just to prove you care
If this is wrong
I don't want a cure
I want the wound
I want the war
[Chorus]
Burn
Beautiful venom
Running through my veins
Love like loaded bullets
Dressed up in my name
Hold me in your barbed-wire arms
Tear me just enough
Hate me
Then you heal me
This is venom blood love
