Song lyrics

[Verse 1:]
I can't keep faking it
I smile real wide with a mouth of diamonds
But the shine is counterfeit
When we're dressed in white, we're in Halloween outfits
I'm obsessed with protecting you
You're a trigger's wet dream and my prized possession
I spend hours perfecting you
Till you're bigger than me on my knees reflection, praying

[Chorus:]
Dear Ana, I can't live without you
But it's killing me to keep you alive
And dear Ana, I'm afraid to out you
I know your secrets and you know mine
And you have carried me away
For too long
You have carried me away
Now I'm gone
Now I'm gone

[Verse 2:]
I know I keep saying it
That tomorrow's last time will be last and final
And I keep engraving it
When I climb the pearl gates
I recite your Bible
I'm obsessed with believing you
You're a sweet 16
Burning out my candles
And I'm tired of needing you
Growing dizzy with dreams that have all been cancelled, praying

[Chorus:]
Dear Ana, I can't live without you
But it's killing me to keep you alive
And dear Ana, I'm afraid to out you
I know your secrets and you know mine
And you have carried me away
For too long
You have carried me away
Now I'm gone
Now I'm gone

[Bridge:]
You're my best friend, you're my weakness
You're my angel, you're my demons
You're my virgin in a black dress
I'm on my knees again for you

[Chorus:]
Dear Ana, I can't live without you
But it's killing me to keep you alive
And dear Ana, I'm afraid to out you
I know your secrets and you know mine
And you have carried me away
For too long
You have carried me away
Now I'm gone
Dear Ana, now I'm gone

[Outro:]
Dear Ana
Dear Ana
Dear Ana, I can't live without you
Dear Ana
Dear Ana
Dear Ana, I can't live without you
