she came on a velvet caress   a whispered secret and a flick of the wrist   and when the shortness of breath   meets the bloody red kiss   we'll pull off on an unlit street   and in the shadows where the murderers meet   we'll dance the tangle, in the dark we'll do the tryst.   she came on with a velvet caress   a whispered secret and a flick of the wrist   and we're counting all the scars   to find the places we missed.   in the silence it's swift and sharp   and with a word she leaves her mark   when the tip of her cold dart    finds the sin inside my heart.   i keep execpting just to wake up   but as usual i'm a mess.
