I know a man with cruel intentions He's calm on a killing spree I know a man with no reflection No scent no sympathy Cruel and unusual Can be divine I want you more when you're unkind Love is a noose and you gotta tie it tight If you don't, then she'll wander in the middle of the night Love is a bruise from a never-ending fight Just pretend it never happened and I'm sure you'll be alright Love is a fire, a desire to be burned You can throw me in a furnace but I guess I'll never learn Love is a noose and you gotta tie it tight If you don't then, then she'll wander in the middle of the night Your vile plumage Has won my heart Even a cruel hand Can make a work of art Brutal, un-mutual Time after time I want you more when you're not mine Love is a noose and you gotta tie it tight If you don't, then she'll wander in the middle of the night Love is a bruise from a never-ending fight Just pretend it never happened and I'm sure you'll be alright Love is a fire, a desire to be burned You can throw me in a furnace but I guess I'll never learn Love is a noose and you gotta tie it tight If you don't then, then she'll wander in the middle of the night
