You're lips are sugar coated
And begging to crash with mine.
Succumb, and come with me baby,
And you can forget rainbows and butterflies.
I'll make you see stars.
I'll make you scream.
But for all the lies you feed your friends
Something this good can't be true.
With the fairy lights you so overly adore,
I'll make you sparkle, baby.
I'll take the twinkle from your eye.
I'll take the scarlett from your lips.
And the truth right out of your heart.
But don't worry baby,
I wont leave you hanging.
Not without looking pretty.
So i'll cover the damage of broken words
With the crimson soaked ribbon that holds you together.
And watch you crash once more.
Only this time;
I'll enjoy it.
