second person – fire lyrics
i used to play with matches
when i was very small
legends of wolves and witches
i memorised them all
so many nasty st-tches
so many jagged blades
i tidied up the pieces
i tried to mend my ways
but he came right out of nowhere
like an unfamiliar tune
sat down upon my armchair
and opened up my wounds
i put up no resistance
so insistent was desire
but one of my addictions (is)
i used to play with fire
do you
do you have a light
do you have the time of day
would you
would you save a life
if you had a life to save
how sweetly we collided
just like two meteors
for days he did as i did
mixed drinks and metaphors
oh so much phosph-r-scence
we added spark to spark
i should have learnt my lesson
already broke my heart
and i said
do you
do you have a light
do you have the time of day
would you
lend your light to mine
do you want to come and play
i engineered the chaos
i burned the fortress down
who knew about the lives lost
who took a body count
in my act of supplication
i asked him for his help
but i was an impostion
i had to ask myself
i had to ask myself
do you
do you have a light
do you have the time of day
would you
would you save a life
if you had a life to save
to save
