Lyrics

[Verse 1]
See the blade in your heart as it's building up
Run away, you are never gonna be enough
Seven days since you told me what you know
With the blade against your throat, and now you're finished
[PreChorus]
Circle through the waves of the ocean blue
Siren calls emanating right near you
Every day's more proof that the worst is true
That the cancer grew and pulling the thorns out
Fight back, hanging by your throat
[Chorus]
You know you want me to burn, burn alive
So you can warm your hands on the fire
You told me to be your only light
So you can find your way through the night
And now it feels like the harder that I fight
The more I see myself in the ashes
Our happy ending, strike a match
Throw it into the flood of kerosene I'm drowning in
[Verse 2]
Out of sides, trying to prove to you I'm still alive
Pocket knife, cut me open while I'm paralyzed
You did it out of spite just to ruin my life
Step on my pride, and now I'm finished
[PreChorus]
Circle through the waves of the ocean blue
Siren calls emanating right near you
Every day, you prove what I knew was true
I can see right through you in your malevolence
Fight back, hanging by your throat
[Chorus]
You know you want me to burn, burn alive
So you can warm your hands on the fire
You told me to be your only light
So you can find your way through the night
And now it feels like the harder that I fight
The more I see myself in the ashes
Our happy ending, strike a match
Throw it into the flood of kerosene I'm drowning in
[Refrain]
The flood of kerosene I'm drowning in
The flood of kerosene
[Bridge]
You stepped off the ledge with my hand in yours
You couldn't stand to see me over it, you are my curse
You stepped off the ledge with my hand in yours
You couldn't stand to see me over it, and you are my curse
[Chorus]
You know you want me to burn, burn alive
So you can warm your hands on the fire
You told me to be your only light
So you can find your way through the night
And now it feels like the harder that I fight
The more I see myself in the ashes
Our happy ending, strike a match
Throw it into the flood of kerosene I'm drowning in
