It's how you remember my name
Giving birth to the faith by which fire is made
Like driving a car so fucking fast into a crash
The whiplash, the bomb blast, head turning neck snap, that's my heart rushing in
I desire you're inspired by the fire of my feelings, my short fused baby

As I catch fire inside your smile, your words douse out my flames
I want to be illuminated by the words I'm saying, because your eyes see the wrong things
Hiding behind my smile
I'll chase you until I catch you
Still you run away
Lighting up matches that start this flame
Not stopping until I catch you
To take you home
Nursing myself on this flame

I'm so fucking shy, I can't meet your eyes
Her hand slips in, igniting fires again
A forge that pours out war, land mines on contact, my lyrical bomb blast
Mortar rounds that pound like my heart beat, feelings slip out from beneath the concrete
Fire consumes everything, no breathing, no life, and our fireworks fly
With this look and a smile behind your eyes

As I catch fire inside your smile, your words douse out my flames
I want to be illuminated by the words I'm saying, because your eyes see the wrong things
Hiding behind my smile
I'll chase you until I catch you
Still you run away
Lighting up matches that start this flame
Not stopping until I catch you
To take you home
Nursing myself on this flame

Seasonal delusions from self-inflected variable conclusions
She has all the pieces I put together in a promise
The way her body walks, the way her shirt falls,
Skin tight is right the pants she puts on
And I'm just always looking, never saying how beautiful she is
Or what her smile does to me, or how a garden rose doesn't compare to her
I like to watch, but don't know what to say, I wonder if she notices me
Sitting here and writing everything, sitting here and watching everyday, waiting
I wonder when I'll say hello

As I catch fire inside your smile, your words douse out my flames
I want to be illuminated by the words I'm saying, because your eyes see the wrong things
Hiding behind my smile
I'll chase you until I catch you
Still you run away
Lighting up matches that start this flame
Not stopping until I catch you
To take you home
Nursing myself on this flame
