Lyric

Lip gloss

Midnight

Late train’s humming

Fake smile

Sharp like a silver blade

You call

My phone lights red

Not “loving”

Your name still burns on the screen I fade

Cheap wine stain on a velvet jacket

Your perfume stuck in my tangled hair

You say “it’s fate” like a party magic

But every trick leaves me gasping air

You’re my velvet deadline

Tick-tick heart on the red line

Every touch feels like a crime

Still I run to you

Run to you

Dark little daydream

Bite my tongue ‘til I taste steam

If this is wrong

Keep it obscene

I still come to you

Come to you

High heels

Hallway

Busted halo

Your laugh

Too loud for a quiet saint

Black nails tracing my torn bravado

You draw me close

Then you watch me wait

Sweet lie tucked in a crooked promise

“You’re mine” inked under neon gloom

I say “I’ll leave” but you close the distance

Your shadow swallowing all my room

You’re my velvet deadline

Tick-tick heart on the red line

Every touch feels like a crime

Still I run to you

Run to you

Dark little daydream

Bite my tongue ‘til I taste steam

If this is wrong

Keep it obscene

I still come to you

Come to you

Tell me

Are we cursed or chosen? (Ah-ah)

Red string wrapped around my throat

Kiss me ‘til the world stops moving

Promise that you’ll never let me go

You’re my velvet deadline

Tick-tick heart on the red line

Every touch feels like a crime

Still I run to you

Run to you

Dark little daydream

Bite my tongue ‘til I taste steam

If this is wrong

Keep it obscene

I still come to you

Come to you (Yeah)

My velvet deadline

I keep falling through your thin line

One more hit

Then I’ll resign

But I crawl to you

Crawl to you
