Cadence

The cadence of our heartbeats
Matches the sound of the headboard
Here we are again
Love starts with sin
But it’s becoming something more

She said, “I can’t control this.”
I say "I don't want you to."
We can be alive and well
Or dead and damned
As long as I’m with you

How much longer until forever?
How long do we have to wait?
I’m begging for you
Because I need this
I’m dirtying my clean slate

These chains could never hold me
I’ll rip them link by dirty link
My wrists are bleeding
And I’m barely breathing
I need you more than you think
