Can’t even begin to explain This all too well familiar pain That comes and it goes but it gets in my bones all the same
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
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
Forget everything we’ve come to expect It only serves to further fuck with our heads And I don’t wanna pretend this will all be alright in the end

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
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
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
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
