) I knew if I said too much This would happen I should have known And not gotten so close He is like a flame And I, a moth I keep coming back Except this time I was really burned I want to go back though Say it was all ******** And I made it up Ask for forgiveness But I know I can’t I know why I’ve been feeling this sinking feeling In my stomach every time I thought about him My mind warned me But I didn’t listen Like a moth to a flame I kept going back I couldn’t help myself I wish I listened I wished I stopped, Cold turkey But he’s addicting And I’ve already burnt My wings to a crisp I can’t fly away I’m stuck here Left to defend Against the unwanted thoughts And the ultimate betrayal, He has displayed I won’t go back, I can’t But I might He still is a flame And I, a moth

"Moth and a Flame"
) I knew if I said too much This would happen I should have known And not gotten so close He is like a flame And I, a moth I keep coming back Except this time I was really burned I want to go back though Say it was all ******** And I made it up Ask for forgiveness But I know I can’t I know why I’ve been feeling this sinking feeling In my stomach every time I thought about him My mind warned me But I didn’t listen Like a moth to a flame I kept going back I couldn’t help myself I wish I listened I wished I stopped, Cold turkey But he’s addicting And I’ve already burnt My wings to a crisp I can’t fly away I’m stuck here Left to defend Against the unwanted thoughts And the ultimate betrayal, He has displayed I won’t go back, I can’t But I might He still is a flame And I, a moth
