Glass in My Throat

[Verse 1]

You taste like borrowed trouble

Lipstick on my cigarette

You draw a heart on the table

Then cross it out

Say “place your bet”

Your nails in my neck

You’re laughing

Call me yours

Then call your ex

You talk about happy endings

While you’re twisting up the hex

[Chorus]

You’re poison in a perfume bottle

Kiss me

Then you push full throttle

Crash my ribs

You’re hitting that spot

(I can’t stop, I can’t stop)

Toxic

But I crave the damage

Sweet knife

You know how to brand it

Every time you say “it’s the last”

I relapse

I relapse

[Verse 2]

You show up wearing my hoodie

Swear you “found it in a friend’s car”

You ask if I’ve been behaving

With that look that says you’d rather scars

You burn my name in a candle

Watch it drip

Call it a spell

You say you’re scared I’ll hurt you

While you’re dragging me through hell

[Chorus]

You’re poison in a perfume bottle

Kiss me

Then you push full throttle

Crash my ribs

You’re hitting that spot

(I can’t stop, I can’t stop)

Toxic

But I crave the damage

Sweet knife

You know how to brand it

Every time you say “it’s the last”

I relapse

I relapse

[Bridge]

You say

“We’re bad for each other”

But you’re walking toward my door

We’re swearing we’ll keep it covered

While we’re staining every floor

[beat drops to half

Whispered doubles]

“You’re all I hate

All I worship”

You breathe it right into my teeth

If this is love

Let it hurt then

I’ll bleed

You just don’t leave

[Chorus]

You’re poison in a perfume bottle

Kiss me

Then you push full throttle

Crash my ribs

You’re hitting that spot

(I can’t stop, I can’t stop)

Toxic

But I crave the damage

Sweet knife

You know how to brand it

Every time you say “it’s the last”

I relapse

I relapse
