Too Close To The Flame

Music: Eric Nizgretsky/Brenna Miles Mmmm, didn't know you'd slither back in town Moving through the room like you belong I caught the whiskey linger on your mouth It's the burn that pulls me back along Used to watch me beg and arch my back You'd salt the wound behind each aching bite I never learned, but what's the fun in that Dripping jaws now the leash is tight
Called you cause I'm lonely Now you're at my door Nothing tender in this story Just matches on the floor babe Every time that this ends We start over the same Can't be mine, I'll get burned Getting too close to the flame
Wax melting into the hush of our night Would it burn to touch my skin Let it set then say goodbye In this empty bed I'm laying in I could ignore it, but I crave the flame Say you want it, leave the same I'm burning like before
Called you cause I'm lonely Now you're at my door Nothing tender in this story Just matches on the floor babe Every time that this ends We start over the same Can't be mine, I'll get burned Getting too close
We've both been here before My hands start to shake One of us reaches for more While the other pulls away babe Every time that this ends We start over the same Can't be mine, I'll get burned Getting too close to the flame
Mmm Cause baby I think I'm getting too close to the flame Mmm Cause baby I think I'm getting too close to the flame
