Bright city lights shine above our heads
leaving the imprints of diamonds across your face,
oh how good you are to me at times
as your hands slip around my waist.

Cigarette burns and trivial talk
we pause to break up the miles between us
but the air is bitter and freezes my lungs,
and the only love we ever had slips away.

If this is how it's meant to be,
then look me in the face and tell me
tell me how broken your heart is
because it's all lies darling, all lies.

You touch my hand and I am melting
closing my eyes, I dream away
you no longer are my hero in disguise
but the nightmare that keeps me awake.

And as the tears slide down my cheeks,
I can't even look at you face to face
for you're the trigger that I long to pull
and I'm the one carrying the loaded gun.
