The first time that I saw you
I knew that it would hurt
I wanted you to love me
I knew you'd never give in
I watched and waited for ages
You kept your heart closed and caged

Every time I see your face
I feel the pain
The fire inside my chest
Engulfs me in flames

There's secrets that I've kept
So deep you'd never find me
You're so sure of yourself
I could never keep up
I'm a mess I'm a flame that's turned to dust
The truth is something I could never trust

Every time I see your face
I feel the pain
The fire inside my chest
Engulfs me in flames

I take a sip of my beer
While my dreams fade in liquor
I wanna taste the salt on your skin
Hold you close like my sins
Never will you back down
But I will drink up and drown

Remember all the times I've seen your face
While I embrace this pain
Feed the fire inside my chest
As I'm engulfed by the flames
