Do our best to So spend your day in beauty rapt Send gifts of love encased in black We are the haunted, we are the hopeless Shadows form ad in the darkness they cursed us This mess is beautiful cos its ours We burn so bright to spite the stars Your most alive when your crashing cars So spend your day in beauty rapt Send gifts of love encased in black We are the haunted, we are the hopeless Shadows form ad in the darkness they cursed us This mess is beautiful cos its ours We burn so bright to spite the stars Your most alive when your crashing cars
