Track Insight / Lyrics
Candlelight dancing on my skin, (fingerpick guitar)
Your secrets spilled, like bourbon in my glass (synth pad, soft)
Whispers vile, in the dead of night, (drum machine start, steady)
Of your lust, your crimes, your lush excess (bass line, deep)
In the darkness, I'll collect your sins
With a needle and thread, I'll pin 'em to my skin
Stitches of shame, cheap silk and lace
For every lie, every cheating ace
Open heart, dirty hands, playing with the fire
Wearing your ashes, like a dangerous attire
Open heart, dirty hands, with the devil's delight
We're gonna burn this place, to the ground, tonight
Black flowers blooming, like a grave, (drum pattern shift)
In the walls, the weight of your mistakes (guitar fills)
I'll keep your darkest secrets, (bass line, prominent)
And the shadows of your illicit games
In the darkness, I'll collect your sins
With a needle and thread, I'll pin 'em to my skin
Stitches of shame, cheap silk and lace
For every lie, every cheating ace
Open heart, dirty hands, playing with the fire
Wearing your ashes, like a dangerous attire
Open heart, dirty hands, with the devil's delight
We're gonna burn this place, to the ground, tonight
Pillage and plunder, with my lover by my side
Rampage and revel, in the ruins of your pride
Our taste for chaos, will never be denied
In this medicine show, I'll be your guide
Open heart, dirty hands, playing with the fire
Wearing your ashes, like a dangerous attire
Open heart, dirty hands, with the devil's delight
We're gonna burn this place, to the ground, tonight
(Slow, atmospheric piano)
