[Verse 1] Velvet ropes and shadows call, Nowhere to run, nowhere to fall. Your breath trembles, sweet and slow And I'll savor it like a final show [Chorus] I make it feel like a dream (I’ll make it feel like a dream) The way I’m killin’ you sweetly (The way I’m killin’ you sweetly) Oh baby, don’t you plead (Oh baby, please!) I’m already taking what I need. The kiss of the needle, a little tease, While your life pours from your veins with delicate ease. [Verse 2] Red rivers run dry, beneath your skin, Every pulse drains away all you’ve been. Drip, drip, drip, drip— Your blood flows down the drain. Don’t be scared now— I’m setting you free from this world of pain. [Chorus] I make it feel like a dream (I’ll make it feel like a dream) The way I’m killin’ you sweetly (The way I’m killin’ you sweetly) [Musical Interlude; Sensual and dark] [Bridge] [Brass swells into playful stabs; piano syncopates in a sly rhythm] Oh darling, no need to fight, Your story ends in perfect light. I’m your artist, your crimson muse, Every drop is a stroke I choose. [Chorus] I make it feel like a dream (I’ll make it feel like a dream) The way I’m killin’ you sweetly (The way I’m killin’ you sweetly) Oh honey, don’t you cry (Oh baby, don’t you cry!) This is just your final lullaby. [Outro] [Haunting brass fades, percussion softens to faint taps, and synths echo in eerie finality] Hush now, baby, close your eyes, Your final breath sings lullabies. Oh baby, baby, this is bliss, Your last drop of blood is my final kiss. I’ll leave you here, my perfect crime, And fade into the night with a feeling so sublime! [Dark Jazzy Instrumental Outro]
