Demimonde ft. Frances Reid Twomey Lyrics

Think that I met you one night

Standing out in the snow

Paint peeling and off white

Bathing in lampshade glow

See how my hands keep shaking

Sip from a polished prayer

All of my fears are naked

All of my secrets stare beneath

I think I should have left by now

I'll stay leave a part of me

I can still feel your fingers

Curl around my throat

I remember gardenias

And the poems we spoke

What if you make me see through

And you're terrified

What if you're make believe too

And the hands on my neck are mine release

I really should have left by now

I'll stay leave a second piece

I'll stay

My invocation

On the tip of my tongue

A garden of nightshade

That I walk among

Chemical creatures

Dancing embalmed

I aim to please you

In the demimonde

(Interlude )

Puncture and pose me

To haunt and to hold

Me under in arm's reach

Carnal and cold

Name me and know me

Crown me in gold

What are you thinking

What if I'm weak

What if we're wrong

Give me one reason I wasn't a monster all along

You're an invitation

I politely decline

An arachnid patience biding time

Beautiful creatures

Become entwined

We are both the damned and the divine

We are both the damned and the divine

We are both the damned and the divine

We are both the damned and the divine

We are both the damned and the divine

We are both the damned and the divine
