[Verse 1]

She crawled into my ear

Like a tapeworm telling me

Things I want to hear

The words escaped her mouth

With everything I should've been

"Are you all alone?"

[Chorus]

I could be a scar

Hold me at your heart

Eat it all apart

I could be your one desire

And even when we're done

Tell me I'm the sun

Baby let me take you higher

[Verse 2]

Her lips were close to mine

Tell me that you wanted me

Our breath's taken in time

Your silhouetted skin

Tell me that you'll promise me

To never say a thing

[Chorus]

I could be a scar

Hold me at your heart

Eat it all apart

I could be your one desire

And even when we're done

Tell me I'm the sun

Baby let me take you higher

[Chorus]

I could be a scar

Hold me at your heart

I could be your one desire

And even when we're done

Tell me I'm the sun

Baby let me take you higher

[Bridge]

The dust on your windowsill

Cracked with an evening chill

The red from the wine you spill

That stains like your midnight kill

The bleach wouldn't wash it out

The feeling of the subtle doubt

It's something that I live with now

[Chorus]

I could be a scar

Hold me at your heart

Eat it all apart

I could be your one desire

And even when we're done

Tell me I'm the sun

Baby let me take you higher

I could be a scar

Hold me at your heart

I could be your one desire

And even when we're done

Tell me I'm the sun

Baby let me take you higher
