Kiss Me Like A Knife

Your perfume fights the smoke on my shirt tonight

Skin on skin so close I can taste your sin

You bite my name in half and call it a prayer alright

These motel walls know more than my next of kin

You say you want the truth then close your eyes

Like you can drown the fire while it climbs

Kiss me like a knife cut slow cut deep

Say you will stay then steal my sleep

Take what you want leave teeth in my heart

Kiss me like a knife then tear me apart

Nails on my back draw maps of where we went wrong

Tongue full of gasoline begging for a spark

You ride my pulse till right feels dead gone

Our halo on the floor our mercy in the dark

Your yes feels like a no with lipstick on

We keep the lights turned off till they come on

Kiss me like a knife cut slow cut deep

Say you will stay then steal my sleep

Take what you want leave teeth in my heart

Kiss me like a knife then tear me apart
