Hold your breath
We've conquered death
A million universes
Skin to skin
Meets deep within
And every doubt disperses

A thousand stars
Reflect our scars
In all their fragile grace
That soon or late
I know that fate
Will wipe without a trace

When yours and mine
Run out of time
We won't meet Death as friends
We'll stick as lovers
To each other
Until the very end

The words still fresh
Sink in our flesh
Though flesh cannot survive
Between the past
And what's to last
We still remain alive

It's in our meat
Our hands and feet
Know better than our heads
Our every cell
Contains a spell
We'll share until we're dead

Skin to skin
It's always been
It's written in our scars
So hold your breath
We've conquered death
Under a thousand stars  
You and me and the Reaper makes three.
