lyrics

Pack your bags and pour us a drink, darling
We're leaving town again
And I promise not to quit my drinking
If you promise not to tell our friends
That we stole their childhood home videos
To shoot our private pornos
There's no need to call them back
We'll just take their numbers out of our phones

And we can wear masks made out of the bruises
And scars from nights we can't remember
So noone knows who we are
Or where we've come from once we get there
Burn through favors like vicious wildfires
To have our fun
Until the screaming and bleeding is done
Crawl under the blankets and out of the sun

Kiss me with your razorblade lips
And tell me your darkest desires
The taste will keep me running from smoke
As if I'm not the one on fire
To keep you safe in my arms
And never let me be lonely
To feed the blaze in my chest
Burning my throat just like cigarettes

It's too late to say whether we're any good
Our love is the fire and the lives are the wood
We've chosen each other for better or worse
The only way out is in the back of a hearse
So pour some sugar in my tank
And put the gun up to my head
Come in close for one last kiss
I'll love you until we're both dead

Wrap the barbed wire around my neck
And show me your darkest desires
The blood will keep me choking from smoke
As if I'm not the one on fire
To keep you sick in my arms
And never let me be lonely
To feed this blaze in my chest
Burning my throat just like cigarettes

I'll keep burning
To keep you beside me
I'll keep burning
To keep you warm
I'll keep burning
To prove to you my love
I'll keep burning
Until we've burned down our home
