Lovely winding snakey melody, and your gorgeous voice wraps effortlessly around it, a perfect balance of sweetness and malice. The lyrics are pretty good too! A++ :-)

Your voice is impeccable on this, as are your lyrics. Fantastic.

I love how mysterious these lyrics are - I feel I could have several different experiences listening to this song on different days.

Your voice is such a subtle and perfect delivery to this sonic vehicle. Me gusta.

@synbluey-i: aww thank you so much! Loved that particular line about knives&guns :)

I really like this one - the chorus repetition of all the "everys" just works really well :)

I can't thank James enough for sending me his unused song ideas list (and also Tamora, for mentioning this list!). I laughed until I cried, and it inspired me SO MUCH. I hope I did justice to your idea!
Also, MY ENTIRE FAMILY IS SICK. I HAD TO RECORD THIS SUPER QUICK BEFORE I GET SICK TOO. I'll do it better someday. Winter is being really cruel this time lol.

lyrics: 

He's got the world on his eyes,
he's got every inch of you on his mind.
The evolution of a lie,
his heart is a weapon, the aim is your smile.

The bloodstream on his veins
is almost made by your silhouette.
The kind of beauty of your name
is his religion, the fire and the flame.

Words will never be tamed,
this is the kind of love that'll take you
and you won't be the same.
One by one on his lips,
you're left with a knife in a gunfight
you'll never win.

Every song is a heartbeat, he can't resist
to your love. Now you're making him exist.

He's got a perfect work of art
whenever you're wrapped around his arms.
But you should see him in a crown,
it's almost too good to take him down.

The bloodstream on his veins
is entirely made by the words you say.
And when you touch it starts to rain
gold from the ceiling, now you can't escape.

Words will never be tamed,
this is the kind of love that'll take you
and you won't be the same.
One by one on his lips,
you're left with a knife in a gunfight
you'll never win.

Every song is a heartbeat, he can't resist
to your love. Now you're making him exist.

Every song is a heartbeat, he can't resist.
Every kiss is a tragedy when you're not his.
Every touch is a catastrophe if you're not near.
Every song is a heartbeat now that you exist.

Every song is a heartbeat, he can't resist
to your love. Now you're making him exist.
