Lyrics:
Velvet ocean, I would swim
Wanna get lost in your skin
I can see it, you and me
But you like some poisonous things
Take a pill or maybe two
Fire escape, climb up to the roof
Dive in headfirst, don’t think twice
Anything to feel alive
Vices, you got, you got vices
I don’t have the time to
Keep all your demons at bay
Vices, you got, you got vices
I would love to love you
But I’m not your saving grace
There’s a darkness in you
Clouds are building, deepest blue
I know I should run so fast
But something in you keeps drawing me back
You’re the August lightning storm
So alive and so forlorn
I’m fascinated watching you self-destruct slow
But you like to go places I cannot follow
Vices, you got, you got vices
I don’t have the time to
Keep all your demons at bay
Vices, you got, you got vices
I would love to love you
But I’m not your saving grace
So I will stay away
From you and your vices babe
I’m no exception
I see it written on your face
Your words are weapons
You hunt because you love the chase
I’m no exception
I see the truth behind your gaze
A ghost town haunted
By you and all your vices babe
Vices, you got, you got vices
I don’t have the time to
Keep all your demons at bay
Oh, vices, you got, you got vices
I would love to love you
But I’m not your saving grace
So I will stay away
From you and your vices babe
I’m no exception
I see the truth behind your gaze
A ghost town haunted by
You and your vices babe.
