Damn. Time. You kiss me like you’re leaving You touch like you regret it I taste the silence between us But I pretend not to get it You lie like it’s a language And I’m fluent — every line But when you pull me closer I forget the warning signs You say “don’t fall” with your lips on my neck But your hands write stories I never forget Love me like a lie Make it sweet, make it sting Dress it up in gold Even if it don’t mean a thing Touch me like a dare Say it like you care But leave me in the smoke Breathing in your fake air You never stay But you linger Like perfume Like splinters And I let you Every time This ain't love But it's something Dark, addictive Almost comforting Love me like a lie Make it sweet, make it sting Dress it up in gold Even if it don’t mean a thing Touch me like a dare Say it like you care But leave me in the smoke Breathing in your fake air [Outro, Echo fade, Minimal pads] Whisper me a goodbye Make it sound like forever
