Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Love's like a needle full of methadone
Potent but not real, left you wanting more
Lipstick track-marks bleeding red
Like Montagues and Capulets
For us, child, the stars refuse to shine
Why for us, child, do the stars refuse to shine?
[Verse 2]
Somewhere strung out on the lam
We wound up back here again
Like unstable chemicals
Combining only to explode
[Verse 3]
What will it take for you to notice?
I am a heart on fire and all the
World's a fuse, so don't get close
The trouble and the worth
Am I better off on my own?
[Verse 4]
Contaminated, quarantined, then left alone
A shipment refused, address unknown
Damaged goods they soon forget
In choking dust that we got left
For us all, the stars refuse to shine
[Verse 5]
Tap the vein and light the match
We burn like stars before the crash
But for you there's still a chance
Just let go
[Verse 6]
What will it take for you to notice?
That I am heart on fire and all the
World's a fuse, so don't get close
The trouble and the worth
I'm better off on my own
On my own
[Verse 7]
There's nowhere to run
And now there's nowhere to hide
There's nothing under the sun
We haven't already tried
[Verse 8]
What will it take for you to notice?
I am a hand grenade
Pin already pulled so don't let go
As we chase the sun
My shadow slows us down
Without me along
You're better off and I know
You're better off and I know
And I know
