The Bloodstained Link Between Love and Work

Stroke my heart, stroke my thighs
In winter, the Sun and I
Kindest friends, lovely heights
The perfect drug, the perfect high

Make me blush, make me cry
Pray for me, make me die
Call my name, stab my eye
I know you, who am I?

Reject my faith, reject my life
Call me a slur, call me your guy
Call for my camera, call for my eye
Beg me to beg, force me to lie

Beg for my loving, beg for my life
Beg me to beg you for the right not to die
Grip like a God sitting up in the sky
Know I'd do anything to catch your eye
