She said ketamine don't mean a thing to me unless you love me
You can suffocate on milk and honey
Wash it away, the air we breath it's not some gift to me It's always scares each time we meet
And if you could hold me close
And feel this noose around your throat
Just look me one last time in the eye
Just to say goodbye
CHORUS:
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
And you wanna survive? Well don't look me in the eyes...
When you hold me close It's like being choked by a velvet rope, by a velvet rope
Is that look in your eyes as you try to survive this wave of desolation It's impossible to save 'em
Turn the knife on alt the world
Turn on every boy and girl
Watch the noose slip 'round your neck
As you close your eyes and drone a breath
And if you could hold me close
And feel this noose around your throat
Just look me one last time in the eye
Just to say goodbye
CHORUS:
When you hold me close It's like being choked by a velvet rope
When you hold me close It's like being choked by a velvet rope
And you wanna survive? Well don't look me in the eyes...
When you hold me close It's like being choked by a velvet rope, by a velvet rope Into the arms of everyone you've ever loved
At the same time (lalallal) one last kiss from a million lips you once loved
As you drift and drift and drift away Drift and drift and drift away Drift and drift and drift away Drift away one last time...
CHORUS:
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
And you wanna survive? Well don't look me in the eyes...
When you hold me close It's like being choked by a velvet rope, by a velvet rope
