You look good in leather in bars

Breaking things, breaking hearts

Engaging in destructive behavior, causing heartbreak.

You look good in pleasure, in hotels

I get emotional when I drink too much

In your blood, the fetish

The prize of a million teasing moments blind

But the gravity between us will keep us safe

The gravitational pull between the speaker and the person will provide safety.
