Love Is the Word That Kills

[Verse] your silhouette cut through the haze Midnight streets in a purple daze Your shadow’s sharp It won’t erase It lingers loud It steals my space [Prechorus] Whispers louder than the screams Love's a nightmare that haunts my dreams [Chorus] Love is the word that kills It breaks It burns It chills Say it once You’re mine to keep Say it twice I’m lost too deep [Verse 2] Velvet skies but the stars don’t shine Your touch is sweet but it poisons mine Every glance A loaded line A ticking clock A love divine [Prechorus] Heartbeats echo Static thrill Love’s a child that can’t sit still [Chorus] Love is the word that kills It breaks It burns It chills Say it once You’re mine to keep Say it twice I’m lost too deep
