Back up on the blade again
Your love is punishment
My spinal cord is caving in
A gruesome discipline

I breathe in every mercy
You ration out the air
Your love is a life sentence
That I'm begging you to spare

Guillotine
Wrapped around my throat
Like a scarf on a cold night
I can't let you go, rather die
Guillotine
Holding up the rope
One slip, say our goodbyes
I can't let you go, rather die
Guillotine

You need me to need you
While you sit atop your throne
Teach me how to fear myself
Then you leave me alone

I breathe in every mercy
You ration out the air
Your love is a life sentence
That I'm begging you to spare

Guillotine
Wrapped around my throat
Like a scarf on a cold night
I can't let you go, rather die
Guillotine
Holding up the rope
One slip, say our goodbyes
I can't let you go, rather die
Guillotine

Off, off, off
Off with my head
Let it chop, yeah
So I drop, drop dead
Off, off, off
Off with my head
Let it chop, yeah
So I drop drop dead

Wrapped around my throat
Like a scarf on a cold night
I can't let you go, I'd rather die
Guillotine
Holding up the rope
One slip (one slip), say our goodbyes
I can't let you go (let you go), I'd rather die (rather die)
Guillotine

Guillotine
Off, off, off
Off with my head
Guillotine
