Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I could talk my way out of trouble
With a smoke and a smile
But she dealt me a handful
I played along for a while
When I woke up to goodbye
Coffee black with pain
She left me as she found me
Half-empty again
[Verse 2]
I ran for a remedy
Whatever fit the bill
And I follow the script closely
Whiskey, women and pills
Still, the heartache lingers on
As I run myself down
'Cause you can't tame a fire
You gotta let it burn out
[Verse 3]
Sometimes there ain't no
Better way around
Everyone got somethin' to say
How to make the flame go down
But they're all the same as me
In secret, filled with doubt
'Cause you can't tame a fire
You gotta let it burn out
[Verse 4]
Now here I am livin' backwards
Chained to the past
Days spent runnin' through memories
And old photographs
And all the colors, the magentas
Pale yellows and blues
I've gotta let 'em all go
To forget about you
[Verse 5]
Sometimes there ain't no
Better way around
Everyone got somethin' to say
How to make the flame go down
But they're all the same as me
In secret, filled with doubt
'Cause you can't tame a fire
You gotta let it burn out
[Verse 6]
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh-ooh
[Verse 7]
But they're all the same as me
In secret, filled with doubt
No, you can't tame a fire
You gotta let it burn out
No, you can't tame a fire
You gotta let it burn out
Whoa, you can't tame a fire
You gotta let it burn out
Oh, you can't tame a fire
Let it burn out
