[Verse 1]
Born with too much love
A ladies' man
A lighter by Cartier
Though bought and made in Turkey

Being beautiful
At the park-hotel
Such tenderness unknown
And there goes daddy's money

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Of pirates and of vampires and of ghosts
Your fireside stories sure rock the most
No lion heart, a wuss, a pack of lies
A slick suburban crook in silk disguise

[Chorus]
Know love, demise
Compliments, white lies
A pile of shards
Golden broken hearts

[Verse 2]
Standing on the yacht
White linnen pants
That seagull shit will ruin
Your brand new brown suede shoes

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You always get so sick on that damn boat
Or looking at your lover's fox fur coat

[Chorus]
Know love, demise
Compliments, white lies
A pile of shards
Golden broken hearts
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Your parents hold a bitter bitter grudge
Ever since that fateful Christmas morning
Your friends with who you never stayed in touch
All of them just couldn't make it, sorry

[Chorus]
Know love, demise
Compliments, white lies
A pile of shards
Golden broken hearts
