Intro: Ebm--
Verse 1:
Love, bring me the head of jealousy
His curse is the poison on her lips
A love as certain as a sinking ship
Unstoppable
Refrain 1:
This isn't a dream
this is what you are
And I'll take the blame
but that won't heal your scars
Chorus 1:
Look look a little
closer and then shut off
You should've known
this wasn't a truce
Keep taking your cheap shots
Until I'm black and blue
Verse 2:
You should have known better
than to change your mind
Your tears won't tame your misery
They're the ones that
say your heart is just a beat
Your just keeping time
Refrain 2:
This isn't a game who
do you think you are?
And I'll take the blame but
that won't heal your scars
Chorus 2:
Look look a little
closer and then shut off
You should've known
this wasn't a truce
Keep taking your cheap shots
