Shadow on the Tongue

[Verse 1] I keep the black key Tucked in my teeth I don't speak sweet I speak in teeth You walk in slow Like you know the room I clock that pulse I smell the doom Dark on your tongue Cold in your stare I pull you close Like danger's prayer My thoughts run wild My hands stay locked One wrong move And the whole place rocks [Pre-Chorus] Say my name low Then say it again One step closer Now we both descend Heart on ice Mind on fire You want that edge I take it higher [Chorus] Love me in the dark (under the black sky) Love me in the dark (where the bad things lie) Love me in the dark (cut through the night) Love me in the dark and don't act nice [Verse 2] I got that grin Like a blade in glass I move too fast I make time crash You want the thrill I want the truth I tear the lie Right out the root No angel words No pretty mask I say the hard thing And I make it last Room getting hot Floor getting thin You feel that storm It's starting within [Pre-Chorus] Say my name low Then say it again One step closer Now we both descend Heart on ice Mind on fire You want that edge I take it higher [Chorus] Love me in the dark (under the black sky) Love me in the dark (where the bad things lie) Love me in the dark (cut through the night) Love me in the dark and don't act nice [Bridge] If I go quiet You hear the grin If I go deeper Let me in No saving face No clean escape We both want more Than a safe mistake [Final Chorus] Love me in the dark (under the black sky) Love me in the dark (where the bad things lie) Love me in the dark (cut through the night) Love me in the dark and don't act nice
