ZRKOV Black Silk on Your Throat

Backseat perfume on your skin
Lipstick smeared on my thumb
You say you’re tired of behaving
I say we’re just getting young
Your heartbeat taps on my ribcage
Like you’re locked inside my coat
You ask how far we can take this
I trace my name on your throat

You’re saying we shouldn’t
But you’re closer again
You taste like a secret
You want me to sin

You’re playing with danger, baby, don’t choke
You’re pulling on the chain like you want it to choke
You’re melting in my hands when I talk that slow
Say you’re scared of me, but you won’t let go
You’re breathing like you’re burned and you’re needing the smoke
Every little shiver writes my name in your bones
You’re playing with danger, baby, don’t choke
You keep coming for this black silk on your throat

Hotel window, open blinds
City flickers down your spine
You say you never do this
I say I heard that last time
Your dress hangs off of one shoulder
Like you’re halfway out of control
You tell me “promise you’ll break me
I tell you “I already own your soul

Your hands on my collar
But you’re begging for more
You say “I might drown
As you dive to the floor

You’re playing with danger, baby, don’t choke
You’re pulling on the chain like you want it to choke
You’re melting in my hands when I talk that slow
Say you’re scared of me, but you won’t let go
You’re breathing like you’re burned and you’re needing the smoke
Every little shiver writes my name in your bones
You’re playing with danger, baby, don’t choke
You keep coming for this black silk on your throat

Tell me “stop” with your mouth
But your hips say “deeper” yeah
Every line that you cross
Takes you closer, sweeter
You say “this feels wrong
With your nails in my back
If this is your heaven
Why you praying like that?

You’re playing with danger, baby, don’t choke
You’re pulling on the chain like you want it to choke
You’re melting in my hands when I talk that slow
Say you’re scared of me, but you won’t let go
You’re breathing like you’re burned and you’re needing the smoke
Every little shiver writes my name in your bones
You’re playing with danger, baby, don’t choke
You keep coming for this black silk on your throat
