It's getting close to midnight, waiting for you
Trying to find a brand-new way to show that I adore you
When you tore up the plans
I knew that I'd be eating out the palm of your hand
I always knew the other lovers felt wrong
Spent the whole time thinking, "How do I get out of this one?"
But you had me from the go
And now you're like the only sense of home that I know
I'm dreading all the wrong things to say
Slipping out of my throat
You think silver's pretty
Until you know gold
Oh, look how deep we fell
I treat you so bad
But you know I do it, oh, so well
I know that you can tell
You are my heaven
Even when I give you hell
You caught me like a sickness, wild, intense
Because I am the only one that ever really made sense
But how were you to know?
You're not to feel alive until you've slept with a ghost
With every year that passes, fires raging
'Cause babe, the sense of wanting to be touched is contagious
Our love was contraband
Now we speak in a language no one else understands
I'm dreading all the wrong things to say
Slipping out of my throat
(My throat)
I used to love silver
Until you painted me gold
Oh, look how deep we fell
I treat you so bad
But you know I do it, oh, so well
I know that you can tell
You are my heaven
Even when I give you hell
Oh, look how deep we fell
I treat you so bad
But you know I do it, oh, so well (do it, oh, so well)
I know that you can tell
You are my heaven
Even when I give you hell (I give you hell)
Oh, look how deep we fell
I treat you so bad
But you know I do it, oh, so well (yeah, I do it so well)
I know that you can tell
You are my heaven
Even when I give you hell
You treat me so well
Though I give you hell
Yeah, I give you hell
