Burned
Front porch stepI’m sorry I’ve stumbled like this
This heart that still beats
From the breath of your lips
Is a heart that’d kill you with a kiss
And I know that you still choose to love me
And it’s something that I cannot earn
But I turned away and I ran toward the flames
What a wonderful way to get burned
What a wonderful way to get burned
You gave me it all
I threw it away
I played with the fire
What a wonderful way to get burned
I faked love with a tall glass of water
Wasn’t long before she had her fill
‘Cause she had enough of the lack of our love
And now she’s going out for the kill
You told me you’d love me forever
But Jesus, will you ever learn
That your place in my heart
Has been filled with such dark
You won’t see me when you have returned
What a wonderful way to get burned
You gave me it all
I threw it away
I played with the fire
What a wonderful way. what a wonderful way. what a wonderful way
To get burned
You brought air to my lungs
And then I turned my back
You still loved me despite
But I hated the fact that I hated myself
More than I ever loved
So the love that you had
Was just not good enough
And I miss you so much
That it burns in my chest
Like the first cigarette that I smoked to impress
But if I had known then what I’ve done to you now
I’d pour gas on myself with it lit in my mouth
What a wonderful way to get burned
You gave me it all
I threw it away
I played with the fire
What a wonderful way, what a wonderful way, what a wonderful way
To get burned
