Kiss On The Lips
Turn the lights up baby gonna close my eyes |
Don't want to see the situation out of disguise |
I run my fingers down the scar |
I breathe it in like air I drink it down like wine |
Then I sit and I stare at the scene of the crime |
|
When the lie comes down like a kiss on the lips |
It's a fragile wire the memory trips |
The taste is sweet but the kiss is unkind |
There's a crawlspace in my head that I find |
|
The night stands at attention just to watch and wait |
Like it came to see if I was gonna break |
You hold me up you fold me up like paper |
In the naked city where we wear it like skin |
Come on baby it's such an unoriginal sin |
|
When the lie comes down like a kiss on the lips |
It's a fragile wire the memory trips |
The taste is sweet but the kiss is unkind |
There's a crawlspace in my head that I find |
|
There is an edge there is a blade that's so sharp |
Baby it can separate the soul from the heart |
|
You don't need a gun I gave you what you steal |
If you don't ride this train you're underneath the wheel |
I'm too emotional for this |
Rock it up now baby but don't look down |
Let's just make it good-bye I'm gonna leave this town |
|
When the lie comes down like a kiss on the lips |
It's a fragile wire the memory trips |
The taste is sweet but the kiss is unkind |
There's a crawlspace in my head that I find |
The fire burns hot the river runs wild |
And the wind sounds like the cries of a child |
