Your eyes are an inferno I cant help but look away Slow burning in my chest It's not your gaze, but what you say Your words set me on fire Slowly hushing the embers Charring what left inside Pacing your slanders Every tomorrow will rain To wash away the ashes But your words left a stain And you still hold the matches

Your eyes are an inferno I cant help but look away Slow burning in my chest It's not your gaze, but what you say Your words set me on fire Slowly hushing the embers Charring what left inside Pacing your slanders Every tomorrow will rain To wash away the ashes But your words left a stain And you still hold the matches
