Darling

It's about asking your beloved to kill you when they leave. Morbid, but beautiful.

Days grow long

when I'm in your arm

days drag on 

like the ticking of a time bomb

set to go off

when you're least expecting it

Darling, darling, darling

Don't get yourself hurt

Darling, darling, darling

leave me in the dirt

Oh, drive the anger into the wine

oh, release the thorned vines

oh, darling I can't hide

I can't hide

Oh, the needle burning deep

raging fire in my sleep

oh, darling, do one last thing for me.

Darling, darling, darling

Don't get yourself hurt

Darling, darling, darling, 

leave me in the dirt

Nights burning bright in gold

Retrieve a tainted hand to hold

flag waving in the sky

goodbye, goodbye

Darling, darling, darling

Don't get yourself hurt

Darling, darling, darling, 

leave me in the dirt
