lyrics

You're the broken taillights
Of the cars passing on the turnpike
You're the morning sunshine
Reflecting off the road signs
And I've swerving, quickly turning
Almost like I'm driving blind
With my breath held and no seatbelt
Across the double yellow line

I told you that I love the taste
Of danger on my lips
That's why I put the roman candle in my mouth
Before I lit the wick
And all the sirens signifying
Something sinister within
Won't mean a thing 'cause I'll be smiling
As your teeth are sinking in

You're a straight razor singing sweetly
Like a siren pulling me in
Begging me just to hold you closer
Until you separate my fragile skin
You can toss me in the ocean
With my wrists and and ankles tied
Then watch as I get washed away
With the waves and rising tide

I told you that I love the taste
Of danger on my lips
That's why I put the roman candle in my mouth
Before I lit the wick
And all the sirens signifying
Something sinister within
Won't mean a thing 'cause I'll be smiling
As your teeth are sinking in

Push me to the floor
Keep pushing 'til I break the boards
With your foot on my throat
Show me no remorse

I told you that I love the taste
Of danger on my lips
That's why I put the roman candle in my mouth
Before I lit the wick
