[Intro] Black lace fever Burning under my skin Black lace fever Here we go again [Verse] You came in late with the city rain A silver knife in a velvet chain Your eyes were dark, your smile was thin You wore the night like a second skin The bassline moved through the crowded room Like flowers waking inside a tomb I felt my pulse become your beat A dying saint on dancing feet [Pre-Chorus] You said come closer, lose control I said I still had half a soul You laughed and kissed the thought away And turned the night to cabaret [Chorus] Black lace fever in my blood Sweet dark river, velvet flood I should run, but I lean in Love me like a beautiful sin Black lace fever, burning bright Take my name and kill the light I know the cure, I know the cost But I feel alive when I am lost [Verse] Your hands were cold, the room was hot We broke the things we should have not The red wine spilled, the mirrors stared As if the dead were almost there You pulled me through the smoke and sound Where every kiss became a crown I wore your hunger like a chain And begged you to begin again [Pre-Chorus] You said be mine and disappear I said your voice is what I fear You smiled and made the fear feel right A black lace fever in the night [Chorus] Black lace fever in my blood Sweet dark river, velvet flood I should run, but I lean in Love me like a beautiful sin Black lace fever, burning bright Take my name and kill the light I know the cure, I know the cost But I feel alive when I am lost [Interlude] Fever rising Lace unwinding Red light shining No one finding [Solo] Black lace fever Black lace fever Black lace fever No relief [Bridge] I used to dream of gentle hands Of open doors and safer lands But now I crave the chandelier The broken glass, the taste of fear You are the sickness I defend The wound I call my closest friend A fever dressed in black perfume A heartbeat locked inside your room [Breakdown] Burn Turn Need Bleed Stay Pray Fall Call [Build-up] The night is not over The room is not still The fever is learning The shape of my will The drums are returning The guitars start to climb You whisper forever And poison the time [Chorus] Black lace fever in my blood Sweet dark river, velvet flood I should run, but I lean in Love me like a beautiful sin Black lace fever, burning bright Take my name and kill the light I know the cure, I know the cost But I feel alive when I am lost [Chorus] Black lace fever, take me down Make my grief a golden crown I should leave, but I begin Every ending back within Black lace fever, cruel and true Everything returns to you I know the cure, I know the cost But I feel alive when I am lost [Outro] Black lace fever Under my skin Black lace fever Here we go again
