INTRO: E Asus2
VERSE:
E Asus2
The streets are dark, my pulse is flat-lined as I'm running to you
E Asus2
You sit completely unaware of what I'm about to do
E Asus2
The air is thick with tension much like when we are together
E Asus2
My fangs are aching as I'm pondering about you and I forever
PRE-CHORUS:
B Asus2 E C#m
As I round your corner I am nervous that you won't be my lover
B Asus2 E
I knock three times and hope that my pale complexion won't blow my cover
C#m
You answer the door with your innocent face
B Asus2
Would you like to leave this human race, tonight?
CHORUS:
E C#m Asus2 E C#m Asus2
Eternity will never be enough for me
E C#m Asus2 E C#m Asus2
And eternally we'll live our infallible love
(VERSE)
My brain is pumping an unusual secretion of lust
Your eyes are softer now and your chin, it drips a bloody color of rust
(PRE-CHORUS)
I am raising up the stakes of this round, I am playing for keeps
Oh, would you like to leave this human race, tonight?
(CHORUS)
Eternity will never be enough for me
And eternally we'll live our infallible love
BRIDGE:
E Asus2
Follow me into the sea
E Asus2
We'll drown together and immortalize you and me
E Asus2
Leave behind this lonely town
E Asus2
We're both better than this, it's not worth being down
(CHORUS)
Eternity will never be enough for me
and eternally we'll live our infallible love
(BRIDGE)
Follow me into the sea
We'll drown together and immortalize you and me
Leave behind this lonely town (eternally)
We're both better than this, it's not worth being down (eternally)
