lyrics

Someone set a fire in your throat

Someone lit a match in your lungs

Now you’re choking on the flames

I can tell you wanna let it out

Breathing with a spark’s dangerous

That’s when your mouth becomes a gun

Do you really wanna point it at me

What you have started

Can’t be unstarted

Once I’m caught in it

Admit that we’re both burning down

Let’s drink to the melted love

That once was

Ashes to ashes

And cheers to us

Everything we know is up in smoke

All our friends dancing in the dark

They don’t see the damage done just yet but

They’ll be coming out tomorrow

Sifting through the wreckage we caused

Seeing if there’s any hope at all

Our coal shaded hearts

What you have started

Can’t be unstarted

Once I’m caught in it

Admit that we’re both burning down

Let’s drink to the melted love

That once was

Ashes to ashes

And cheers to us

I can tell you don’t know

Which one of us is meant to survive

Out of the flames I will rise
