True Love (For Now)

I tasted a hundred friends of mine on your lips
I never saw a single sunset out on that strip
If it was love, if it was love
Then, let me know.

Our hearts are destroyed but our bodies survive
Condemned to live for the rest of our lives
If it was love, if it was love
Then, let me know.

Are these really the days and nights we used to read about
We used to dream about
I never saw it turning out this way.

A quarter-life crisis, teen Dionysus
Collapsed in the back of a car
I never saw it turning out this way.

If it’s my blood that you want
If it’s my blood that you need
Then ask me where I’ll be tonight and listen carefully.
If it’s my blood that you want
If it’s my blood, let me bleed
If it was love, then it was love
But if it was not, then let me be.

Girl it’s true they lied when they said they’d be there for you
Guess I'm liar too
I never saw it turning out this way.

But there's no light at the end of the night
You were never afraid of the dark
I never saw it turning out this way.

If it’s my blood that you want
If it’s my blood that you need
Then ask me where I’ll be tonight and listen carefully.
If it’s my blood that you want
If it’s my blood, let me bleed
If it was love, then it was love
But if it was not, then let me be.

Hold me, let’s fake a memory
Pretend it was all real
And we never got bored
And we never got lonely.
This time your dreams are not mine
My future’s not yours
But if this isn’t love, tell me what is.

If it’s my blood that you want
If it’s my blood that you need
Then ask me where I’ll be tonight and listen carefully.
If it’s my blood that you want
If it’s my blood, let me bleed
If it was love, then it was love
But if it was not, then let me be.
