grenades & guillotines

Rose coloured glasses Stained all red flags invisible Swear to God It made me think You were an angel With your halo And my high hopes Our night calls Sustaining arguments And cross swords were painful But nothing stopped me from Beating it with my impulse I got used to it Learned to live with it 'Cause I loved you more Than your sunday fits But I'd gaze at you Knowing I'd stay forever But you were confused Looking over my shoulder There's blood on your hands From things that you've said From words that you meant You let me down again Grenades and guillotines My favourite fever dreams I've held them close since They're the only things You've given me Imagined chivalry Saw you through movie screens Always held you up high Thought you'd come back for Me, me, me (Guillotine) Me, me, me Me, me, me (Guillotine) Me, me, me (Grenades and guillotines) Another hole in my chest But this one's deeper You're always one step ahead Nothing gets easier But I still carry this Pretend you don't exist Hold up the walls I've built So you can't hurt me again I hate myself I blame myself For not speaking up When I needed help Haven't you taken Enough from me? Can't you see? You were my guillotine Grenades and guillotines My favourite fever dreams I've held them close since They're the only things You've given me Imagined chivalry Saw you through movie screens Always held you up high Thought you'd come back for In love with the moments We never had Gave all my hours And got nothing back I mess myself up Just getting attached For us to collapse My grenade (My grenade) And I'm your guillotine Took my everything (My everything) My everything From me
