Annelise had an idea for a song topic after Rene gave her some music to write to and they just ran away with it.
lyrics
Annelise:
Just standing with your back against the wall
Flicking your ciggarette the embers fall
Your leather jacket smells just like a shattered heart
Baby you make looking bad a work of art
Sipping on your whiskey it goes down so oh smooth
And with the jutbox playing the misfits yea it keeps the groove
The moonlight out tonight it's shining on us
And when are eyes meet up my soul it went to dust
I know it's wrong but it feels so right
I really wanna feed your appetite
I wouldn't mind if you took a bite
I really want you to take a piece of me
Legend has it that you tear your girls apart
You love them good and hard then you tear out their hearts
My masochistic soul wants you to
And no one said i couldn't keep up with you.
I know it's wrong but it feels so right
I really wanna feed your appetite
I wouldn't mind if you took a bite
I really want you to take a piece of me
Rene:
Beware the moon for it betrays
Your trust in me on horrid days
You want me now but you will see
A radical and different me.
A piece of you I'd surely take
But sorrow will come in its wake.
This is too much of you to ask
I can't perform this grizzly task.
I love you way too much for me to give
You what you want and then just let you live.
Because a piece of me will still be left behind.
And the last thing that we need is more of my kind.
