lyrics

I'm on fire.
My edges are curling up as the flames get higher.
Oh, let your body lie on my ashes. You're tired.
I've got a bed made of stone that I'd like to make harder.
I just get louder and louder and louder.

I'll break the walls in this place.
You'll see the words on my face.
I make it hard to turn and go.

You're not the one that I want.
You're afraid, you should run.
I want to stop, but I know I won't.

I’ll come down.
Oh, put your hand on my chest can’t you feel it pound?
We’ve listened here for hours, now what have we found?
There’s a space between us you know it used to be tighter
it just gets wider and wider and wider.

Oh I’ve got more to hold me up
But when you leave I’m cold
This is me telling you how to burn
But embers can never be told
