Liner Notes

thanks to @dark_spider for helping me gather inspiration for this :)

Lyrics

stop calling me your precious kindle
no more than a cheat, a lie, a swindle
this sickening surplus of sin will
burst right into flames
i'll go on and edit the chain of events
subtract you and then add some common sense
i'll attribute the sparks to coincidence
so i'm not the one to blame

you're my propellent
you're pushing me forward
your loving will send me
straight down to the morgue

burning, burning
no returning
i think this yearning
might eat me alive
check in the rearview
extinguish and hold true
i'll let myself lose you
for a chance to survive

i mindlessly accepted risk
there's pure fever in your kiss
i don't belong in a place like this
451 degrees
the searing look there in your eyes
i willingly went and let you inside
so maybe you'll decide to cut me open wide
i'll cauterize, not bleed

you're my propellent
you're pushing me forward
your loving will send me
straight down to the morgue

burning, burning
no returning
i think this yearning
might eat me alive
check in the rearview
extinguish and hold true
i'll let myself lose you
for a chance to survive

i can't tell the mirrors from the smoke
please let me go, please let me go
i can't tell the mirrors from the smoke
let me go, let me go

burning, burning
no returning
i think this yearning
might eat me alive
check in the rearview
extinguish and hold true
i'll let myself lose you
for a chance to survive
i'll let myself lose you
for a chance to survive
