Candlelit

Love's checkered past

is littered with violent acts

And the blood that fills kindless paths

Each drop drawn in her name

In this modern age

the image of valor has changed

But I'm ready and willing to wage

a gut wrenched war for a minute

of your time

I'm done playin' stone paper scissors

Gonna take that stone and bring'em all down with it

Steal those scissors and cut some throats

Put pen to the paper and write you a note

i won't get in line

i will not wait for this

With my bare hands I kill

just to be candle lit

with you

I have no checkered past

I've never been a violent man

well maybe you've changed all that

each scar i've carved is in your name

So let the suitors come

I can see them off, one by one

Open every last artery up

just for a second of your time

Oh...

I'm done playin' stone paper scissors

Gonna take that stone and bring'em all

down with it

Steal those scissors and cut some throats

Put pen to the paper and write you a note

I won't get in line

I will not wait for this

With my bare hands I kill

just for the privilege

Look at the blood bath

Look at the mess I have made

with my bare hands I've killed

just to be candle lit

With you

Oh, I'd kill for one

I'd kill for one night candle lit

oh i'd kill for one

kill for one night candle lit
