[Bridge: Male] If I opened the gate, would you leave this place? [Bridge: Both] We can blame the moon, we can blame the dead We can trade the truth till there’s none left Say you’re mine, I’ll say it too A haunted heart knows what to do [Final Chorus: Both] Beautiful nightmare, keep me near Put your cold hand over my fear If the whole house burns, we’ll call it home Two bad hearts with nowhere to go Beautiful nightmare, bite and bless Dress our ruin up like tenderness When the black cats cross, when the church bells cry Hold me close while the old world dies [Outro: Both] Beautiful nightmare, lock the door We’re still hungry, still wanting more #PsychoJ #BeautifulNightmare #SweetTorture
