Honeyed and Toxic

You put me in your heart I put you in boxes
All the pieces smart like rocks in my pockets
You drag me down, I drag you down
Lost in a lost in found
I met you at the bar drinking something exotic
Our drink was equal parts honeyed and toxic
I drank you down, you drank me down
We ordered another round
Everyone needs to keep up appearances
That's why I drive around the city at night
Mouths to feed, I air my grievances
One at a time, on a dime, on the road
I played you in my car, filled it up with sadness
Followed all the charts to the X in your faxes
I hunt you down, I hunt you down
Til I hear a different sound
You called me a star you could light your match with
Kept me in a jar, I'm art for the artist
You took me down, you took me down
My penny for a pound
Everyone needs to keep up appearances
That's why I drive around the city at night
Mouths to feed, I air my grievances
One at a time, on a dime, on the road
Found you full of scars sporting rosy glasses
Hit you like a mark, you ran like molasses
I hold you down, I hold you down
Kiss you into the ground
Fumbling in the dark til my candle catches
Smoking like a spark, I'll burn til I'm ashes
You break me down, you break me down
Mountain into a mound
Everyone needs to keep up appearances
That's why I drive around the city at night
Mouths to feed, I air my grievances
One at a time, on a dime, on the road
You put me in your heart, I put you in boxes
Players playing parts, I'm noughts, you were crosses
You put me down, I put you down
We go a final round
Cut you into shards, poured me on your rocks cuz
Baby loving you was hard, honeyed and toxic
I drank you down, you drank me down
We run this ship aground
Everyone needs to keep up appearances
That's why I drive around the city at night
Mouths to feed, I air my grievances
One at a time, on a dime, on the road

Moonlight is how I saw you
Burning bright despite the dark
Midnight is where I left you
Clinging tight to broken bark
When you were alone did you think of me
Like I think of you
Like a drumming, drumming powering this heart
Did you burn my candle too
Like I burn for you
In the shelter of a car that wouldn't start
You were like the song on my radio
I gotta catch you while I can
You think I'm the boy that you kissed that night
I gotta show you I'm a man now
I could be your B-side
We could ride or we could die
Flip me over
My sunlight could never reach you
Feeling like a dying star
But last night I came out to meet you
In your hand you held a spark
When you were alone did you think of me
Like I think of you
Like a drumming, drumming powering this heart
Did you burn my candle too
Like I burn for you
In the shelter of a car that wouldn't start
You were like the song on my radio
I gotta catch you while I can
You think I'm the boy that you kissed that night
I gotta show you I'm a man now
I could be your B-side
We could ride or we could die
Flip me over

It was a long road to get here
Down to the bar where we met
From my apartment on the other side of town
On a night I won't forget
You had a face born for anger
I had a heart made from fear
But after three or four whiskies and a quick trip to the john
I was pulling your heart near
I wanna tickle your lips with my moustache
I want you to throw open all my doors
They may call you a bad man and me trailer trash
But what I am, babe, is yours
You live and work round the corner
Followed you home to say goodnight
I told you I'd call you and you said, "You better fuckin' not!"
That's when I knew I'd met Mr. Right
Your frown it lights up my morning
As I reach for you in bed
It hasn't been long and you know it's not been easy
Hey, that's what she said
I wanna tickle your lips with my moustache
I want you to throw open all my doors
They may call you a bad man and me trailer trash
But what I am, babe, is yours
But what I am, babe, is yours

Moonlight is how I saw you
Burning bright despite the dark
Midnight is where I left you
Clinging tight to broken bark
When you were alone did you think of me
Like I think of you
Like a drumming powering this heart
Burn my candle too
Like I burn for you
In the shelter of a car that wouldn't start
That wouldn't start
You were like the song on my radio
I gotta catch you while I can
I'll catch you while I can
My sunlight could never reach you
Feeling like a dying star
But last night I came out to meet you
In your hand you held a spark
When you were alone did you think of me
Like I think of you
Like a drumming powering this heart
Burn my candle too
Like I burn for you
In the shelter of a car that wouldn't start
That wouldn't start
You were like the song on my radio
I gotta catch you while I can
I'll catch you while I can
