Silent Killer

It was what it really was It is what it's always been Love, love, love The carbon monoxide didn't kill us But love nearly did You wanted a ride in an ambulance Well, you got it, kid She's a silent killer, love She'll steal you in your sleep She's a thick and heavy glove And your insides start to bleed Love burns, love bites Love's got the madness in her eyes Love cuts, love cries Love's no red rose, she's a steely knife Love stings, love lies Love aches, love dies Oh, love's a sniper smiling wide Love laced your cake with cyanide That night at the windmill You knew I'd be trouble Two valentines on either side Or were you just seeing double? She's a broken bottle, love Pressed up against your neck She's a bar fight, she's a handcuff Love wishes you were dead Love burns, love bites Love's got the madness in her eyes Love cuts, love cries Love's no red rose, she's a steely knife Love stings, love lies Love aches, love dies Oh, love's a sniper smiling wide Love laced your cake with cyanide Since you left the flat I've been sleeping upside down like a bat They fixed the leaking boiler It's funny, I enjoyed her But now the walls went black I wish you'd come back Please come back The heavens below The hell above The kiss of death And the bite of love
