[Intro: Matthew Colthart]
Oh my love, oh my lover
When did we die to one another?
Flames of passion now have faded
Resting in our bed of poppies
The dead so soon grow cold
[Verse 1: Matthew Colthart]
Though you’re suffocated you linger with me still
Lying there with dreaming eyes and wounds that will not heal
Some kill with a look or a flattering word
The coward a kiss, the brave man the sword
Some strangle with lust or with hands of gold
[Chorus 1: Matthew Colthart]
Oh my love, mea culpa
You fought for air but I held you under
Drowning in our bed of poppies
The dead so soon grow cold
[Verse 2: Naomi Scott]
Despite how much I loved you the storm would not let me go
I left you clinging to the cliffs, the jagged rocks below
Some kill when they’re old, some when they're young
The Thief bears a knife the Pirate a gun
I killed through inaction, a deed undone
Oh my love, oh my lover
When did we die to one another?
Flames of passion now have faded
Resting in our bed of poppies
The dead so soon grow cold
[Verse 1: Matthew Colthart]
Though you’re suffocated you linger with me still
Lying there with dreaming eyes and wounds that will not heal
Some kill with a look or a flattering word
The coward a kiss, the brave man the sword
Some strangle with lust or with hands of gold
[Chorus 1: Matthew Colthart]
Oh my love, mea culpa
You fought for air but I held you under
Drowning in our bed of poppies
The dead so soon grow cold
[Verse 2: Naomi Scott]
Despite how much I loved you the storm would not let me go
I left you clinging to the cliffs, the jagged rocks below
Some kill when they’re old, some when they're young
The Thief bears a knife the Pirate a gun
I killed through inaction, a deed undone
