In a hospital ward
Her high heels I mock with wild tapping on the floor
Music in her mouth, she greets me lip to lip
Her arms out stretched as drunken lovers kiss
Her body to mine, I press to see
All she ever asked of me.
Oh, it's only a matter of time
Until we unravel-unwind
I said it's only a matter of time
Until we unravel-unwind
Oh love, devour me with kisses sweet
While the needle rides deep into her veins
Arms bruised by the holes she's made
Oh, won't you skirt the way, as I flirt with death
Clutched in our desperate grip
A feast for the mouths of kings
Oh, remember me, think, and sigh
No longer do I wish to die
Oh, it's only a matter of time
Until we unravel-unwind
I said it's only a matter of time
Until we unravel-unwind
Beneath the bed a creature stirs
A groggy voice all knucklebone
While feelings flood with the warmth of our blood
The more we know, the better we f*ck!
I am the heroine, I am the heroine
