I was waiting for tonight's revealing
In the ballroom
Your black dress and hair a mess
Left my brain reeling
And caused tiny heart attacks throughout my chest
If I could I'd freeze this moment
Keep it in a homemade picture frame
To keep us together, immortally the same
Oh, you smelled so sweet
I'll always hold you close to me
For now I'll make you mine forever
Please never say never
Chorus: Candy hearts and purple tongues
Are intertwined like these blackened lungs
That are bashed and smashed
Synchronized pulses crashed
The broken bannister over which you hung
My beautiful dead darling
I'll be joining you, leave loneliness in the past
We danced across the hall
While jealous cadavers watched in awe
As we disappeared into the wall
My hands clasped around your waist so small
I love how you make me feel so tall
Now do you think we're on the brink
Of landing in Elysium or on the shores of Devon
Doesn't matter to me
'Cause anywhere you are is heaven
So for now I'll call you mine forever
Now pull with me this death labeled lever
Chorus.
Make me the keeper of your soul
I'll keep you safe from the unknown
And I'll wipe away the pain and the fear
Everything, under me, will disappear
Chorus.
(Oh) (oh) over which you hung
(Whoa) (oh) (oh) (whoa)
(The broken bannister over which you hung)
(Whoa) (oh)
In the ballroom
Your black dress and hair a mess
Left my brain reeling
And caused tiny heart attacks throughout my chest
If I could I'd freeze this moment
Keep it in a homemade picture frame
To keep us together, immortally the same
Oh, you smelled so sweet
I'll always hold you close to me
For now I'll make you mine forever
Please never say never
Chorus: Candy hearts and purple tongues

(Oh) (oh) over which you hung
