King Dude - Velvet Rope lyrics

She said ketamine don't mean a thing
To me unless you love me
You can suffocate on milk and honey
Wash it away
The air we breathe it's not some gift to me
It's always scares each time we meet

And if you could hold me close
And feel this noose around your throat
Just look me one last time in the eye
Just to say goodbye

When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
And you wanna survive?
Well, don't look me in the eyes
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
By a velvet rope

It's that look in your eyes as you
Try to survive this wave of desolation
It's impossible to save them
Turn the knife on all the world
Turn on every boy and girl
Watch the noose slip 'round your neck
As you close your eyes and drone a breath

And if you could hold me close
And feel this noose around your throat
Just look me one last time in the eye
Just to say goodbye

When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
And you wanna survive?
Well, don't look me in the eyes
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
By a velvet rope

Into the arms of everyone you've ever loved
At the same time one last kiss from
A million lips you once loved
As you drift and drift and drift away
Drift and drift and drift away
Drift and drift and drift away
Drift away one last time

When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
And you wanna survive?
Well, don't look me in the eyes
When you hold me close
It's like being choked by a velvet rope
By a velvet rope
