Took a long just to ask your name
Takes a long time to forget your face
death and hell fire's all I thought that day
Bed of roses for my aching head
Lovely violence in the words you said
I'll kiss you until you're a ghost instead
A home in the night
A home in the sun
A home when the war is done
Are you either one
Tie your strands of time around my limbs
Don't you stop until they're white with death
Kiss me darling till there's nothing left
Lovely violence in my bed again
Your lips they judge me as they cut my neck
The crowd starts laughing once their king is dead
Away in the night
Away in the sun
Can I see you when the war is done
Am I anyone
Love to miss you when the trees undress
Dressed to kill me when you look your best
Lovely violence, will you take no less
Took a long time just to ask your name
Reign on terror filled with burning stakes
Takes a long time to forget your face
