Seems like so long ago now
   But I can still remember those feelings
   Of being left alone with myself
   Sitting in the garden
   Watching our house burn
   Knowing I couldn’t help it
   It always had to end in a big statement like that
   We were always so intense
   Out of control
   We never understood what we had
   Never knew how to deal with it
   Always tearing at each other
   The violence and the shame
   Banging my head against the wall
   Wanting to explode
  
   And it was my idea
   And I put you there
   I lied and said I didn’t want you
   You were running to someone else
   Breaking the spell
   Being able to see me for what I really was
   And then the flames
  
   Wanted you
   Make me feel like no man in the world wanted you
   Still feel the flame
   Still feel the cold
   Still feel the flame
   Gets so cold around the stove
   They still reach for me
   Where you gonna go now
   They still reach for me
   Where you gonna go now
  
   Made you feel like no man in the world wanted you
   Made me feel like no woman in the world wanted me
  
   Still feel the flame
   Some days it seems I’ve left those feelings so far behind
   Still feel the cold
   But they’re always there, waiting
  
   Still feel the flame
   Tempting, trying to release you
   It’s so cold around the stove
   Don’t believe, don’t cherish your pretence
   They still reach for me
   You strike a match
   Where you gonna go now
   The thrill of having nothing
   They still reach for me
   The smell of the flames
   Where you gonna go now
  
   Made me feel like no man in the world wanted you
   Made me feel like no woman in the world wanted me
