lyrics

I'm not scared of heights to climb
Blood that's red, or dark that blinds
The only fear that chills my bones
Is picking out yet another gravestone

Love is quick, but passion's strong
When fire burns, it doesn't burn long
You should be warned, if you breathe me in
I'll coat your lungs, and burn your skin

I'm so safe in your arms
Wearing you like a bulletproof vest
All of the others fit me well
Until they started wearing holes in their chests

My only friend, keeps to the dark
Has never left my side, but has left his mark
On everyone I've ever met
Soon you'll meet my best friend

I'm so safe in your arms
Wearing you like a bulletproof vest
All of the others fit me well
Until they started wearing holes in their chest

What am I supposed to do?
Everyone I ever love I have to learn to lose
But you won't believe me
Please just leave me
You've got nothing to prove

I'm so safe in your arms
Wearing you like a bulletproof vest
All of the others fit me well
Until they started wearing holes in their chest
