Lyrics
It’s the scent of sulfur and rouge,
Ripping the threads out under the surface
During handshakes in hazy back rooms
All of the small talk is making me nervous
Empty, bleak and alone
Uncomfortable clothes
And nothing to show for it
Don’t you adore it?
It’s the scent of sulfur and rouge
Cigarette ashes on a diamond bracelet
If I cash out, then what’s it to you?
It happened so quickly, why not embrace it?
Suddenly unprepared?
No need to be scared
There’s no affair worth the trouble
Grab your shovel
You’re a bundle of old spare parts rather likely to break
Haven’t you read the papers?
It’s human nature
The scent of sulfur and rouge
Filtering slowly into the vestibule
Coating carpets with a light residue
If you can’t see it, how can you clean it?
Blow a mouthful of smoke and it’s strikingly cold
You wanna know how that feels?
Let’s make a deal
In the scent of sulfur and rouge
In the scent of sulfur and rouge
