FALSE HALOS

Intro

Palm trees through the tinted glass

You say this feeling never lasts

Still wear my chain against your throat

While somebody waits for you back home

Low light, red wine, cold air

Your perfume still trapped in my hair

We say “one night” every weekend

Then fall right back into pretend

Verse 1

You got a man with a clean reputation

I got bad habits and hotel reservations

You tell me leave but your hands keep shaking

Every little lie got your heartbeat racing

Your lipstick stain on the second champagne glass

You saying “slow down” while you moving too fast

Girl, your eyes always confess first

Even when your mouth try to do rehearsed words

Backseat driving through the hills at midnight

You crying softly while you kiss me in the streetlight

Say you hate the way I pull you under

But you still call me every time you wonder

And I know

You memorize the sound of my door

Like a prayer you shouldn't ask for

But temptation look prettier when it’s dangerous

Chorus

You only love me after 2AM

When your conscience get weak again

Body on mine like we're innocent

While your phone keep buzzing in your hand

Oh-oh

We romanticize the damage

Oh-oh

Turn heartbreak into a habit

You say forever with your eyes closed

Then go back home like nothing happened

Verse 2

Black silk falling from your shoulders slowly

You say nobody ever touched you closely

The way I do when the room turn blue

And the city lights start telling truths

You wear guilt like designer fashion

Pretty little scars under perfect captions

You hate yourself every morning after

Still show up dressed for disaster

Your friends all know but they stay quiet

We too deep now to even deny it

You say his love feel safe and sacred

Mine feel dark but intoxicating

So you keep both

One for the sunlight, one for the smoke

One gives peace, one gives ghosts

And somehow you still need us both

Chorus

You only love me after 2AM

When your conscience get weak again

Body on mine like we're innocent

While your phone keep buzzing in your hand

Oh-oh

We romanticize the damage

Oh-oh

Turn heartbreak into a habit

You say forever with your eyes closed

Then go back home like nothing happened

Outro

Morning rain on the penthouse view

Your makeup gone, but I still want you

You say this has to end real soon

Then crawl right back into my room

Fake halos over both our heads

Love so wrong that it feels heaven-sent

If this fire was meant to destroy us

Why it feel so beautiful between us?
