[Verse 1]

Can't even begin to explain

This all too well familiar pain

It comes and it goes

But it gets in my bones all the same, ooh-ooh

[Pre-Chorus]

Well, maybe I'm a fool

For falling in love with you

When I had nothing left to lose

And nothing more I could give

Went down with your sinking ship

Now I don't think I'll make it through

Through

[Chorus]

Now it's only the beat of my heart

That reminds me not to stare at the sparks

Can't set fire to my soul just to keep ya

Keep ya

Keep ya from burning alone

'Cause, the longer you convince me to stay

Our salvation's slipping further away

Can't set fire to my soul just to keep ya

Keep ya

Keep ya from burning alone

[Verse 2]

Forget evеrything we've come to еxpect

It only serves to further fuck with our heads

And I don't wanna pretend

This will all be alright in the end, ooh-ooh

[Pre-Chorus]

So maybe, now, instead of balancing on the edge

We could put this to bed for good

Can call it quits or risk sinking with this broken ship

But I don't think we'd make it through

Through

[Chorus]

Now it's only the beat of my heart

That reminds me not to stare at the sparks

Can't set fire to my soul just to keep ya

Keep ya

Keep ya from burning alone

'Cause, the longer you convince me to stay

Our salvation's slipping further away

Can't set fire to my soul just to keep ya

Keep ya

Keep ya from burning alone

[Bridge]

I wish I could stay

I wish I could lie

Do whatever it takes to get you through the night

I can't be the one

I can't take the fall

Can't go up in the flames to keep your body warm

[Chorus]

Now it's only the beat of my heart

That reminds me not to stare at the sparks

Can't set fire to my soul just to keep ya

Keep ya

Keep ya from burning alone

'Cause, the longer you convince me to stay

Our salvation's slipping further away

Can't set fire to my soul just to keep ya

Keep ya

Keep ya from burning alone
