Appetite For Misery

Love

What's the rush?

I'm a little far gone for that

You talk too much

Got no excuses, no defences

I don't think we've crossed the line yet

So come a little closer

And I don't care to try define it

Tasting death in little doses

I'd tear my heart out tonight

Choke on paradise

Cut my teeth on silver knives

Burn by candle light

I'm tired of subsisting

I know just what I'm missing

I'd tear my heart out tonight

Choke on paradise

Lust

Enough to crush

Another stone dropped to the bone

And on the hush

No excuses, no defences

I don't think we've crossed the line yet

So come a little closer

And I don't care to try defy it

Selling death in little doses

I'd tear my heart out tonight

Choke on paradise

Cut my teeth on silver knives

Burn by candle light

I'm tired of subsisting

I know just what I'm missing

I'd tear my heart out tonight

Choke on paradise

What my mother's mother taught to me

The recipe for apathy

Stole the carpet right from underneath

No apogee past twenty-three

All my father never meant to be

The strings that keep on pulling me

Heirloomed in the gloss of magazines

An appetite for misery

I'd tear my heart out tonight

Choke on paradise

Cut my teeth on silver knives

Burn by candle light

I'm tired of subsisting

I know just what I'm missing

I'd tear my heart out tonight

Choke on paradise
