The sweetness
Can you reach me?
I need a lullaby
Your face saving promises, whispered like prayers
Sweet turning sour and untouchable
And hold your breath
I need the darkness
Then you shut your mouth
The fine winding tendrils that strangle the heart
All the trembling sweetness, I loved and adored
The weakness
I'm a slow dying flower in the frost killing hour
The sadness
Need a lullaby
I don't need them
Or I'm leaving
I'm a slow dying flower, frost killing hour
As if I'm becoming untouchable
Angel, sweet love of my life
A kiss goodnight
Do you remember the way that you touched me before
Oh, I need
A kiss goodnight
The sweet turning sour and untouchable
I've been treated so wrong, I've been treated so long
They say that promises sweeten the blow
And I don't need them
But I don't need them, no I don't need them
Oh, I mean this
Oh, I need this
'Cause I've been treated so wrong, I've been treated so long
The sweetness
Can you see me?
Well, is it dark enough
You kiss me now
Your face saving promises, whispered like prayers
Oh, I need this
Oh, I need this
As if I'm becoming untouchable
Angel, sweet love of my life
The sadness
You catch your death
Well, contempt loves the silence, it thrives in the dark
The weakness
The darkness
Do you want me?
Oh, I need this
