lyrics

The blood on your chrysanthemum corsage
After all the hit's you've dodged
The rips on your black and red dress
It's time to confess
Where you have you been? Running off with him?
Are you hurting with him, like I'm hurting within?
I'm sick of watching this punching bag exchange
Darling I will make things change

Sweet girl won't you run and hide?
Or make this our night, 'cause I'm dying tonight?

Backseat prom queen
Come on home and dance with me
Paranoid angel, sad annoyed stranger
Come with me and get away from the danger now

The past it swallows your trust and follows your doubt
When there's no-one around
With a gentle soul and a pinch of love
Because a little's enough
My heart will follow your trust and swallow your doubt
As you breathe safe in my house
The scars will show how brave and bold you truly are
Darling I will heal your scars

I wish we could disappear
Your hands are shaking dear
Your green eyes are full of fear
No more pain, it won't be the same now that I am here

Backseat prom queen
Come on home and dance with me
Paranoid angel, sad annoyed stranger
Come with me and get away from the danger now

Backseat prom queen
Blood stained like Halloween
Suicide princess, tired and restless
Come with me and don't ever regress now

You're safe with me now
So safe and sound

Backseat prom queen
Come on home and dance with me
Paranoid angel, sad annoyed stranger
Come with me and get away from the danger now

Backseat prom queen
Blood stained like Halloween
Suicide princess, tired and restless
Come with me and don't ever regress now
