[Verse 1]

Crawlin' through fire

I lost my mind

Looked both ways

Though I’ve crossed a hundred times

City light glare

As you drive away

I know it’s the end

But I’ll the same mistake

Again


[Pre-Chorus]

He’ll look

I see

Ahead

My funeral

I’ll attend

But I promise

You’ll never forget

The way I made you feel

Dagger through your thick shield


[Chorus]

I call you out

You get tongue-tied

Lay us down

In a bed of fire

And we burn until the flames are dry

So now I’ll pout

And sit wide-eyed

Then you leave town

To electrify

Only took a second to fall

Before I wrecked it all


[Verse 2]

Stole my time

It was tickin' by

Then both hands stopped

As soon as they reached mine

The liquor on your breath

Makes my bones ache

I try to sober up

But then I make the same mistake

Again


[Pre-Chorus]

Walk away

While your

Ahead

Your funeral

I’ll attend

But I promise

You’ll never forget

Why you came crawlin’ back

I got that shield to crack


[Chorus]

I call you out

You get tongue-tied

Lay us down

In a bed of fire

And we burn until the flames are dry

So now I’ll pout

And sit wide-eyed

Then you leave town

To electrify

Only took a second to fall

Before I wrecked it all


[Bridge]

Can you please do me a favor?

Can you hold me tight?

Just for right now

Just for tonight

Don’t need to love me forever

It’s fine it’s alright

My delusion is

My mistakes in disguise


[Chorus]

I call you out

You get tongue-tied

Lay us down

In a bed of fire

And we burn until the flames are dry

So now I’ll pout

And sit wide-eyed

Then you leave town

To electrify

Only took a second to fall

Before I wrecked it all
