Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sugar light, we're addicts
Why do you think we came?
He's pasting cold leeches
On my arm
[Verse 2]
We sharpen up our teeth
White sugar, he speaks french
Memorising torsos
He's open throated
[Verse 3]
In the corner
His rubbing hands
My arm is tired of waiting
To burn it down
[Verse 4]
Sugar light, sugar light I can't believe
Swallowing one bulb after another
In the city of electric light
[Verse 5]
Sugar light, sugar light I can't believe
Swallowing one bulb after another
In the city of electric light
[Verse 6]
Sugar light, sugar light I can't believe
Swallowing one bulb after another
In the city of electric light
[Verse 7]
Sugar light, sugar light I can't believe
Swallowing one bulb after another
In the city of electric light
