I strike matches with burning flames trying to ignite you
thinking maybe you'll want me again
I set you on fire only to burn myself over and over
my fingers are black
my heart burns blue
my body is up in flames
I knew you were never to be tamed
yet foolishly, I tried, like the child I am
so now my mind is twisted and bruised
screaming out for you.
