take my hand and tell me why

while we’re laying by the fire

i see red orange yellow in your eyes

baby you’re my lovely pyre.

love makes me a dangerous creature

my heart in your hands makes you

just the same

you’ve got black eyes and bloody teeth

you look so pretty babe.

there’s some lilac on your cheeks

stains from bruises i kiss away

run your lips against my wrist

you’re the reason i was made.

(you’re the reason i’m so afraid)

love makes me a dangerous creature

my heart in your hands makes you

just the same

you’ve got black eyes and bloody teeth

you look so pretty babe.
