Bete Noire

Cut like a knife through a sweet tongue You might take to the sound A scream so loud Who knows you better? Force, drive desires left unsung Breathe life Do it for the blood. Do it for the flesh. Don't believe in love. Only in regret. You are not the stranger So come inside beneath the lights Perilous behavior, follow you down without a fight You are not the stranger Two signals crossing in the dark. So safe. In torment, we are safe There's no need to stay, a ghost to linger You're just a throwaway between my fingers Do it for the blood. Do it for the flesh. Wouldn't be the first to say What made your heart so unmoved? But I'm the only one to blame - made up the rules. So I suggest we learn to play a better part than most fools It's not worth the fight once the sun comes up. Too late to ignite what's already burned. Just give me what I want before you get hurt It's not worth the fight once the sun comes up. Too late to ignite what's already burned.
