A Lover's Death Wish Lyrics

Why would anyone make a suicide?
When they could revel in the swell of slow demise.
Undress me, Love, lay me at your side --
And I'll demonstrate my destruction.

My destruction is fearless when I'm spiraling down.
It tangles my hair, wreaks havoc upon my mouth.
An attempt to singe the rest of the wreckage -
And any power I've known now relinquished.

Oh the wintry air was warm this season -
And it done me well to forget my care.
To hurry on past your next day's reason.
For I've already cried a thousand tears.

My destruction knows when I'm beat -
And a tear or two more won't make a dent now.
Have me if you want me, I'm down at your feet.
I'll give my very last until I'm bled out.

Oh, Love, I don't care if you love me in turn.
If not today, then tomorrow I'll be spurned.
Have me if you want me, I'm down for the count.
I'll give my very last until I'm bled out.

Our destruction's will is wild and reckless.
When we are one we are something electric.
It builds beneath my breast to betray my gender.
And any power I've known I now surrender.

Oh why would anyone make a suicide?
When they could revel in the swell of slow demise.
Undress me, Love, lay me at your side --
And I'll demonstrate my destruction.

Oh Love, I'm in love, I'm in love…
