Fire

It was the last time

I swore to your face

Poor folk get it tough anyway

All feather no meat around here

Lost in a glass house

No doors to get my ass out

You've shown me the way

To get past the smoke and mirrors

I'm gonna build me a fire

To forget who you are

A derailed train and a car wreck

I won't be debris anymore

Every street every bed every hole in the wall

Nothing will go un-burned

I was in love with a liar

So I'm gonna build me a fire

I feel a loss of posture

When the cost of hurt don't go further

Than the distance between

my heart and my eyes

Gather the fuel and oxygen

These things I hold they need to go

I'll be the all that remains

Let all that weight just ash away and

I'm gonna build me a fire

To forget who you are

A derailed train and a car wreck

I won’t be the debris anymore

Every street every bed every hole in the wall

Nothing will go un-burned

I was in love with a liar

So I'm gonna build me a fire

In the light

Be the one who survived

In the night

Be a burden slain

No I won't be shy

No won't be a coward

I'll be a flower

Be the ever blooming flame

I'm gonna build me a fire

To forget who you are

A derailed train and a car wreck

I won't be the debris anymore

Every street every bed every hole in the wall

Nothing will go un-burned

I was in love with a liar

So I'm gonna build me a fire

Gonna build me a fire
