[Verse 1]
Em Em/G
Morning sun won't stay away
Em Em/G
Cuts my eyes like a razor blade
Em Em/G
From the looks of things I could be dead,
Em Em/G
But that's no angel in my bed
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Em/G
Draw you in with every breathe, cuz you're my favorite sin
Em
One more kiss could be my death and here we go again
[Chorus]

You're no good for me, like a methamphetamine

I sold my soul and everything I own

To hold you close and keep me strong

Life is but a dream, the ups and downs and inbetweens
