sweet nothing

i am the one who lives or dies
stung by the devil dancing in your eyes
baby, you could make me happy tonight
a few white lies and it's all alright

i am the one who'll cherish fear
you never tell me what i want to hear
but baby, you could make me happy tonight
i'm your sweet nothing and it's all alright

i'm your sweet nothing
i'm yours

nothing lasts- dust to dust, ash to ash
shooting stars land on my back
terrified you could make me try
to heal the rupture in the sky

will i find a dream worth dying over
if i try just a little harder?

i am the one who cares too much
trailing your steps like a sad, lost pup
baby, you could make me happy tonight
i'm your sweet nothing and it's all alright

i'm your sweet nothing
i'm yours

lipstick

pull that blind and cover that window up
too much light in my eyes, i'm going blind
from the drink and the drug

how can i get high when you always bring me down?
one more cheap trick
a fresh coat of lipstick
another one down

talk dirty baby, play me your shaky guitar
nothing gives me the blues like your blue eyes
begging alms at the back of the bar

how can i get high when you always bring me down?
one more cheap trick
a fresh coat of lipstick
another one down
