I'd set your heart on fire but arson is no way
  to make a love burn brighter.
  (When you saw me, on that first day
  said I'd blossom under your care).
    Always thought that the devil was the only one
  who knew the ins and the outs of the ways of love,
  so I sold off my heart to see how this would end,
  now I can't move an inch for fear it will begin.
  (Wrap me up tight inside your wing
  Is it safe now, is it safe to breathe?)
    You come in between me and the darkness,
   please don't ever leave.
  (I force my eyes open, and now who has changed?
  You look different, so different today)
    Holding your eyes in the hardest stare
  running around like you wanted me there
  Lookin' at me like I'm the hottest in town
  then turnin' your back when you're movin' around
  I ain't gonna listen to you no more
  breakin' outta this place throwin' open the door
  Use me up just to fan the flame
  but you'll be sony as I'm walkin' away
  (Backwards, forwards going out of my mind,
   spinning way off time
  Fire to water baby's putting me out)
    You're the truest light I've known,
   but someday I'll learn I don't need your fuel to burn.
  I'm the one who decides who I am
  I'm the one who will shed this old skin)
    Always thought that hell was the only place
  hot enough to melt our hearts into a locked embrace
  There's something so safe about a lack of air
  the only way to make sure that you'll always be there
  (I force my eyes open, and now who has changed?
  I feel different, so different today)
