carcinogen

carbon skin the only thing

strong enough to hold you in

steel-cut hope all rolled up

in flax to burn at both ends

ignite my blood

and baby i'll let you in

if you promise to be kind

and maybe let me win

jet blue heart the color of

sweet and ugly tears

just pinched pink blush flooding your

love and bleeding fears

so strike our chord

and darling i'll line you up

if you promise to be soft

and never get enough
