[Verse 1]
You taste like last night’s ash
Lipstick on a shattered glass
You say you love me when you’re bored
Scratch my back like you’re bored of yours
We argue in a bathroom stall
Name-calling on the dirty wall
You kiss my neck ’til it bruises blue
Call it art, I call it you
[Chorus]
Love, hate, sex, pain
We crash, we burn, we do it again
You pull me close, then fade to black
I lose my pulse when you turn your back
Love, hate, sex, pain
Say my name then wash it away
We light the match, can’t take it back
We only feel alive
When we fade to black
[Verse 2]
You wear my t-shirt, cut too short
Turn the bedroom to a courtroom sport
You beg for mercy, load the gun
Judge and jury, then we come undone
We promise “this time, we’ll be clean”
Till you’re clawing through my fever dream
You break my heart just to hear it crack
Then sew it up with your zodiac
[Chorus]
Love, hate, sex, pain
We crash, we burn, we do it again
You pull me close, then fade to black
I lose my pulse when you turn your back
Love, hate, sex, pain
Say my name then wash it away
We light the match, can’t take it back
We only feel alive
When we fade to black
[Bridge]
You say, “this is the last time” (last time)
While you’re drawing a line on my spine
Every scar on my skin spells your first name
Every “never again” sounds the same
[Chorus]
Love, hate, sex, pain
We crash, we burn, we do it again
You pull me close, then fade to black
I lose my pulse when you turn your back
Love, hate, sex, pain
Say my name then wash it away
We light the match, can’t take it back
We only feel alive
When we fade to black
