I thought I heard you say You wracked your brain and nearly thought of Calling it a day Belie the cost of sacrificing me All that you wanted to be Immaculate and pristine Some sort of spiritual Sid and Nancy We'll put the whole world to sleep Just by the skin of our teeth Rolling in like a Roman army Tear your way back into my black heart, baby I've waited too long just to have you slip away again I know we spent so much time apart now lately But pulling you close it's me and you until the end Savvy in the way You catch me scheming well before I Come to plead my case Despite a wealth of indiscretioning All that you want me to be Better to give than receive Like a chemical - so disarming We could put on a scene But you think you should leave Floating out with your eyes locked on me A vulture to the bait Without you, I'd be left to slowly Pick amongst remains All in all, I know I made a Terrible mistake I never want this night forgotten And heaven help the day We're nothing more than precious memory Cast into the flame I swear to you I'm never coming Back for you again Again, again, again, again, again
