Bug in my ear. I know, there was something that really bit me. Good? Yep. One not to be confused, one not to speed up truth. We had a promise made, four hands and then away. Both under influence, we had divine sin to know what to say. Mind is a razor blade. To call from hands up above to lean on, would it be good enough for me? No. To call from hands up above to lean on, it'd be good enough for me? No. One night of magic runs, the start of simple touch. One night to push and scream. And then you released 10 days of perfect tunes, the colors red and blue. We had a promise made, we were in love. Took off from hands up above to lean on. Wouldn't be good enough for me, no. Took off from hands up above to lean on. Wouldn't be good enough for me, no. Good enough for me. No, you, you knew the hand of the devil. I say you kept us awake with wolf teeth staring different hearts. And one night took off our hands above our heads. When life leaves you high and dry, I'll be at your door tonight if you need help. If you need help.
