lyrics

Red light reflects off the walls of your bedroom
Still processing the fact this is about to happen
Faint strokes of my love like scars on your figure
As I fall into your platonic embrace

Were we not this close, this would be a violation of our bond
But I will make sure this event won't have it jeopardized
With your consent, I let my lips fall upon your skin
And in that same moment, the clocks freeze

I'll forever be grateful
For the unique kind of concern you show for me
With this card with the letter V on it at stake
This is a price that I'll happily pay

So the ritual starts - enter, exit, rinse and repeat
The chills down my spine almost overwhelm me
Of the ways this could go down, you were the second best choice
Yes, I have regrets, but I'll be damned if I'll let this be one of them

I'm in a debt of gratitude I know I'll never be able to repay
Just know that I appreciate you being the one to claim my innocence

I'll forever be grateful
For the unique kind of concern you show for me
With my card with the letter V on it at stake
This is a game that I'll happily lose
