Make a thousand excuses
you'll never be mine

wearing our mangled crowns
Cupid ran out of time

loving despair and our precocious bodies
we are desires lovers

the sweet beautiful nobodies

you whisper sins in my ear
things that others should never hear
a voice that makes my run blood cold
one sliver of poison disguised as gold

teeth that chatter in a perfect melody
a toxic tongue in which pain is the remedy

can you feel that shudder beneath my breast
that's my heart escaping my aching chest

you're filthy, you're pathetic
an obscene blackened liar -
I know I shouldn't
but I'm addicted to my desires

a flash of hope burnt by passion
we wear each other like the latest fashion

our hearts beat but that's not living

Cupid's rotting away

I guess we get what we're given

returning to our troubled pasts
to mistakes we should not go back to

but I don't care as long as I'm with you.
