Lyrics
Verse 1
Cigarette smoke curls like a devil’s grin,
In the mirror, I see shadows where my heart’s been.
Whispers in the hallway, ghosts of lovers past,
They haunt me, baby, but nothing good ever lasts.
Pre-Chorus
I’m dancing with my demons, spinning in their light,
Their eyes on me, so hungry, they’re not polite.
But I like the way they tease, the way they bite,
They remind me of you, darling—so wrong, so right.
Chorus
On these dreary nights, when the moon don’t shine,
I hear your voice, but it’s just a lie.
In these dreary nights, where the stars don’t align,
I taste your kiss, but it’s just a sigh.
Verse 2
The clock ticks slow, like it’s savoring the pain,
Each second’s a drop in this endless rain.
You’re a fever dream, a poison in my veins,
But I crave you still, like the pleasure of the insane.
Pre-Chorus
I’m tangled in your darkness, wrapped in your spell,
You’re a beautiful secret, a story I won’t tell.
But the night knows our sins, it knows them well,
And it whispers them back in a voice from hell.
Chorus
On these dreary nights, when the moon don’t shine,
I hear your voice, but it’s just a lie.
In these dreary nights, where the stars don’t align,
I taste your kiss, but it’s just a sigh.
Bridge
The wind calls my name, soft as a blade,
It cuts through the silence, a love we betrayed.
But I’ll dance on your grave in this masquerade,
A queen of the night, in the empire we made.
Final Chorus
On these dreary nights, when the moon don’t shine,
I hear your voice, but it’s just a lie.
In these dreary nights, where the stars don’t align,
I taste your kiss, but it’s just a sigh.
Outro
Dreary nights, with your ghost by my side,
I’m the darkness now, no place to hide.
Dreary nights, where our love has died,
I’ll haunt you forever, my sweet cyanide.
