That smoke, it moves just like sweet velvet It lures me in till I'm drinking to kill the pain Trying to stay out of a fight but the liquor, it won't let me The only thing it's killing now is me Your darkest eyes and pale skin are always on me Black fingernail polish is chipping off again On my mind just like a death threat or maybe death wish Kill me anytime I'm ready for it No one else was ever half this beautiful No two hearts were ever half what ours was whole, whole Desperate like the rain on your midnight window sill You said I love you and I know that's what you meant I know that's what you meant There's a Holy Grail of a simple life led somewhere In the blankets of trees between you and Tennessee St. Peter's in a river running out to Homer's sea Where the leaves can break your heart And the waves might wash me clean No one else was ever half this beautiful No two hearts were ever half what ours was whole, whole Desperate like the rain on your midnight window sill You said I love you and I know that's what you meant Hey, I know that's what you meant
