No Matter What

Sing, sing again
And wrap your fingers around my throat.
Dance, dance again
And tell me how much you love me.
Bleed, bleed again
Until I'm oceans of red,
And blow another kiss
(I can't handle your poison).
Deadly, gripping, incomprehensible
How you play me out like chess pieces
On a cracked board.
Memories run, slippery wet and white-hot,
Drowning in you—in us—and everything we've lost.
Broken, broken again (I am)
But you still say you love me.
