Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I shouldn't laugh, but I know I'm a failure in your eyes
I know it's daft, but I guess that I know it deep inside
It feels like we're ready to crack these days, you and I
When it's just the two of us
Only the two of us, I could die
[Verse 2]
You left my hear like an abandoned car
Old and worn out, ain't no use at all
But I used to be free
[Verse 3]
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always runnin' scared, but holding knives
But there's a black chandelier
It's casting shadows and lies
[Verse 4]
Drip, drip, drip, drip
[Verse 5]
I'll sit in silence for the rest of my life if you'd like
Dressing our wings with industrial gloves made of wire
Feel it penetrating our skin, we begin to relax
When it's just the two of us
And a cute little cup of cyanide
You left my hear like an abandoned car
Old and worn, ain't no use at all
But I used to be free
[Verse 6]
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always runnin' scared, but holding knives
But there's a black chandelier
Who's casting shadows and lies
[Verse 7]
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always runnin' scared, for holding knives
For there's a black chandelier
You left my hear like an abandoned car
(Old and worn, and no use at all)
But I used to be free
[Verse 8]
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always runnin' scared, but holding knives
But there's a black chandelier
Who's casting shadows and lies
[Verse 9]
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always runnin' scared, but holding knives
But there's a black chandelier
