I want to taste your skin
Hold you in my arms
Wrap my fingers around yours
And lie under scarlet broken sky

I want you to know
Im addicted to your soul
Like a filthy drug of which Im ashamed
I'll filter my worries into you

Because I love you even when I hate you
Ive never felt like this so frozen and scared deep within
I want to tell you I want it all or nothing
But I cant seem to catch my breath

I want to place a tender, innocent kiss on you
Then tie you up in white silk ties
Corrupt you then let you lie
Watch your eyes fixate on me

You'll see...

That how I feel whenever Im with you
Pain within pleasure, trust within illusion
I try to catch my breath
But you keep pressing harder til I break

I still gaze up into the stars
And remember the night I thought we'd travelled far and beyond
I still love to see your name flash up on my phone
And I still keep those old bus tickets to remind me of a past Id rather forget

Because I need you even when Im with you
Ive never felt like this, Ive always hoped for more
And I feel so alone although your holding me
Should this scarlet sky fall, would you save my soul?

Because Ive helped you when you needed me
Now Im asking you to give me something in return
We've come so far and yet never taken a step forward
Isnt it about time we jump overboard together?

And we'll float together in these un known seas
I'll hold your head up if you start to drown
We'll sail those turbulant tides
Together we can steal a smile from the most stubborn frown

Because this is our last chance so lets take it
Im always willing to loose myself in something so suicidal
Because you are my darling perfect pleasure
My muse, my corrupter, my darling perfect pain...
