Love You But I Can’t

[Intro] Midnight. Red light. Don’t look at me like that. [Verse 1] You smell like trouble underneath the smoke, Silver on your neck, yeah, I get the joke. Say you’re not afraid, but your pulse says more, Every little heartbeat shaking up the floor. Black boots, bathroom light, Red lips looking like a warning sign. You wanna stay until the morning comes, But morning isn’t where I belong. [Pre-Chorus] Come a little closer No, don’t. I know how this ends. Your hands on my waist, My teeth on your skin. One bad decision, I’m hungry again. [Chorus] I love you, but I can’t, I want you, but I won’t. If I kiss you like I mean it, I might leave you like a ghost. Love you, but I can’t, Baby, understand You keep offering your heart Like I won’t take it in my hands. Can’t, can’t, can’t. Love you but I can’t. [Verse 2 Rap] Walk in the club like the crypt got Wi-Fi, Everybody staring, I don’t even try. Cold little stare with a blood-red lip, You say “come closer” dangerous shit. No reflection, still look expensive, Bad intentions, highly selective. Three a.m., leather and lights, You say forever like you’ve got nine lives. I don’t need roses, don’t need rings, I need distance from inconvenient things. Call me heartless, call it what it is You’re romantic. I’m a risk. [Chorus] I love you, but I can’t, I want you, but I won’t. If I kiss you like I mean it, I might leave you like a ghost. Love you, but I can’t, Baby, understand You keep offering your heart Like I won’t take it in my hands. [Bridge Metal Breakdown] I don’t fear the cross. I don’t fear the sun. I fear what I become When you call me the one. Lock the door. Kill the light. Tell me to leave Before I change my mind. [Final Chorus] I love you, but I can’t, I want you, but I won’t. If I give you what you’re asking, You’ll be mine and not your own. Love you, but I can’t, Maybe that’s the curse. I could keep you here forever, But forever makes it worse. Can’t, can’t, can’t. Love you but I [Outro] Your heartbeat. Daylight. Goodbye before I bite.
