Shivers

Time slips away Your honeyed words leave craters in the day Oh, time's drifting away As you blink, the nighttime follows Chasing your tender tomorrow Oh, such a kiss Lips like this, two bloody hues I'll pray each peck leaves a bruise Oh, put me in your palm and squeeze Axe and shape my memory Clutch me like a rosary, and rip off my jeans Lover, let's make history We'll melt, and glue, and stick, and weave 'Til it's no longer you or me Just bodies spilling breathlessly Heroine, hеroine, where'vе you been?
