lyrics

Midnight star
Fresh with electric scars
Shocked from a black suspense
No time for wasting sense
I saw you sway and sweat
With your stake in a red roulette
But treachery shakes your spin
There's only one way that you can win
Sing-

We are the worldly, flirtatious, and bold
We'll rarely be lonely until the day we're old

In the quiet dark
Your skin strikes the loveliest spark
And spiraling up my spine
No sense in wasting time
Sing-

We are the worldly, and rarely controlled
We'll catch fire after midnight until the day we're old

And you can never know what shines in others' eyes
Or from what weaknesses they hide
So be glad we're not the loving kind

Duplicity thrives deep in our dark corners
And frustrates the loving kind
So the sidewalk shadows slip 'round my shoulders
We're not the loving kind
No, we're not the loving kind

We aren't the loving kind

You'll never know what shines in others' eyes
Or from what weaknesses they hide
Oh, I feel betrayal coming, I feel it in my bones
Strong as the vines that crack through stone
