Darling, you're fading
This drink you gave me makes me feel I'm floating
Intwined, strung tight
We're spinning underneath a fractured night
Trapped in our very own hourglass
Slowing our breath to a waltz
Writing our very own epitaph
We are gone, gone, gone
Why did you kill me
When you couldn't save yourself?
Why did you drag me
Down, down, down?
Why did you kill me
When they came and found you out?
Why did you drag me
Down, down, down, down, down?
Darling, they're whispering
Closer, closer, I can feel them waiting
Darling, I'm shaking
In this pregnant darkness
Your eyes are death, dead, drowning
Why did you kill me
When you couldn't save yourself?
Why did you drag me
Down, down, down?
Why did you kill me
When they came and found you out?
Why did you drag me
Down, down, down, down, down?
In our achingly beautiful tragedy
Fish watch us dance through the glass
Pressed against pane, shining emeralds
Our last remaining party guests
And you said, "My angel
I simply can't stand when you cry.
From the day we are born we are dying
And tonight, my dear, we going to end it in style."
Why did you kill me
When you couldn't save yourself?
Why did you drag me
Down, down, down?
Why did you kill me
When they came and found you out?
Why did you drag me
Down, down, down, down, down?
Why did you kill me
When you couldn't save yourself?
Why did you drag me
Down, down, down, down, down?
