lyrics
I'm using both of my hands to explore this one.
Curious, I want the story on you now.
Maybe it's useless, but you're not complaining.
I could have easily crept out the back.
So it's gonna go down.
Watching all the churches burning slow.
Killer tell us how your pumpkins grow.
Gonna make it out of here alive.
Till then I'm hiding all the matches you could find.
At the museum I got lost inside,
So you built me a fire, and I breathed the smoke in.
Funny what opens my eyes when I'm sleeping.
But every time I looked you were silent and still.
So it's gonna go down.
Watching all the churches burning slow.
Killer tell us how your pumpkins grow.
Gonna make it out of here alive.
Till then I'm hiding all the matches you could find.
I'm winding down now, so play soft.
If only I held you to what you had said.
Will you be there when deputies kick down our door?
And though I liked feeling the heat on my face,
It was you who ignited it all in the first place.
Try, I will not burn.
