Love Cartel

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh

Verse 1

I built this kingdom in the dark of night

You showed up knocking with your crooked smile

Every brick I laid you called your own

Now the walls are closing in on me alone

Pre-Chorus

You took the crown off of my head

Turned my whole world navy blue

But I still see you everywhere I turn

And I can't stop wanting you

Chorus

Love cartel

You run this town and you know it well

Love cartel

I'm in too deep and there's no exit bell

Take my body take my soul

Baby that's the toll

Love cartel

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Love cartel

Oh-oh-oh

Verse 2

Your number's written on my shaking hand

I dial it every time the night gets long

They say get out before the damage's done

But darling you're the damage I've become

Pre-Chorus

You got me paying with my pride

Every time I try to leave you chain me down

And I'm a soldier in your silent war

With my white flag on the ground

Chorus

Love cartel

You run this town and you know it well

Love cartel

I'm in too deep and there's no exit bell

Take my body take my soul

Baby that's the toll

Love cartel

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Love cartel

Oh-oh-oh

Bridge

I'mma — I'mma sign my name in blood for you

I'mma — I'mma serve my time for your crooked rules

And when they find me buried underneath the floor

I'll still whisper your name

Once more

Chorus

Love cartel

You run this town and you know it well

Love cartel

I'm in too deep and there's no exit bell

Take my body take my soul

Baby that's the toll

Love cartel

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Love cartel

Oh-oh-oh
