Set fire to my skin
Let me feel something again
Watch me as I burn
And I breathe you in

In the dark of the night I can feel you
And I need this feeling to last
I repent for my ways
Relive those dark days
And I lose my mind over you

When the lights go off do you feel the same?

When the lights go on do we begin again?

I self destruct
It's what I do best
I wreck things I love
I leave behind mess

I'm on a war path of my own
And I burn bridges better than most
Set in my ways like stone
I keep wandering lonely roads

Brought up in a tired old town
I've never been one for sticking around
I've got madness on my mind
I keep running to leave it behind

This cold heart keeps warm
Wrapped up in trouble is all I know
I wear it like an armour
Sticks and stones won't break these bones

Wise crack
Wild as a fire
I'll say the wrong thing
Build you up like a tower

Then you'll crash to the ground
When I leave this old town
Don't be surprised when I say
I never wanted to stay

Shook up inside these walls
The ones I built to never fall
There's chaos in my mind
A darkness left undefined

To catch a glimpse of me
Look into my eyes
I'll never say what's on my mind
Still waters run deeper this time

Cut through my solid walls
Chip through my concrete edges  
Pierce through the cold barrage
Stand taller than all my ledges  

Waves crash all around me
I'm stranded yet unbound
I'm neither here nor there
Never lost nor found

But I'll be yours to figure out.

We could never have had it all
That was our greatest downfall
You wanted everything to be right
And I messed us up in time

You said I was a whirlwind of contradiction
Sunny one minute and a downpour the next
You couldn't recognise the chaos behind my eyes
Or understand the trouble that left me tired

You hated my mess and reckless ways
Those times I'd sit completely hazed
You hated not knowing what was on my mind
But I couldn't divulge the dark that I hide

I wanted to be pure for you
And left unscathed from my ways
But even with a burning heart -
I still knew how to be cold from the start

In the end, everything you said was fire
When you couldn't get my mind right
We said some things we both regret
But we can never turn back the time

Wandering amongst the city lights
The colds creeping in on this hungry night
Ive succumb to the moon and its leading me afar
I'm racing away from my doom

I hear your voice and I'm distracted
Look now how I've reacted
These shaking limbs I can't ignore
Once again I'm knocking at histories door

My steps falter as you're leading me from safety
Everything's starting to feel kind of hazy
This ship was only ever made to sink
The towers we built are now caving in

The pace is chasing my hearts racing
You feel it too and you've decided to move
You're stalking your prey, everyone is staring back at me
I feel a storm bubbling up from the sea  

It feels so good but I'm cold
Shivers race down my spine tenfold
I shudder you shake
Together we break
Then build and bend again and again

My mind is aligned with the stars in the sky
You watch as I burn through the night hella high
Dangling in the spectrum of wrong and right
I chase the moons illuminate white light
Should I stay or should I go
In your arms will you forever hold
Me
Breathe
Release
Repeat
I fumble through forests from night 'till day
Wondering when I'll see your face again
When you think of us
Do you think of pain
When you think of love
Do you see my name
Is your memory tainted
Painted black and white in your mind
We've tried and we've tried
But it's getting harder to survive
We can let it all go
Watch it melt away like snow
And years from now we'll still feel the sting
Of what was always the greatest thing.

You feed me words I swallow whole
Hung up on everything you do
You give my heart that summer night feeling
My head is spinning
My stomach is reeling
You shoot me that look and my bones start the shake
I know this time it's my heart at stake
Your fingertips begin to trace my skin
As the trees outside sway in the wind
From the outside I'm calm and steady
But on the inside my blood feels heady
When the light hits your eyes
You've never looked so fine  
You pull me closer
And we dance till its light
In our wildest moments I feel so alive
I said I fell for you
It was a crash dive

I get lost in you
Falling deeper each time your eyes meet mine
I'm better with you
When you're not here I'm out of my mind
I'm falling for you

I watch you as I light a cigarette
Whilst you set a fire inside my head  
I'm stuck on you now
Bound to you somehow

For your beautiful mind i'd leave this world behind
I'd go anywhere with you by my side
Through city streets and rural towns
I'll always want you to be around

You're changing me like autumn leaves
I grow with you more wild and free
We collide together like waves and rocks
I'm drawn to you like a boat to a dock

For this life I'll be yours and you'll be mine
You wash away my fears like a tide
For all my wrongs I got one thing right
I have you to keep - I'm a winner this time.

He’s lost in the beauty brought from the night
Says it’s a gift from the moon that disappears in the light
He’s wild at heart
And his mind is a storm
He rages through life
Hell bent for more

Born to resist
And hungry for life
He gets caught between the wrong and right
His intentions are gold
But he dares to be bold
He’s a rebel in disguise
Or so he’s been told

He does what most wont to feel alive
Anything to make his heart beat out of time
He writes your name on the soles of his feet
And he runs
He runs
Until they bleed

Away from the light
Far from what’s real
He runs
He runs
Until they bleed

I fear a feel no shame
Looks burn through me with pure disdain
Bloodshot eyes and the widest of smiles
Brown dust
Burnt up
Messed up tonight
Gonna feel it this time
'Cause I hit it more real this time

You say I always take it way too far
Now I'll never change from where you are
I have a restless mind
Cracked mirrors don't lie
Born for chaos
I fade into the night
Dancing barefoot with flickering fire
Always a wild one - strung tight as wire
I come around to tell him that I want more
He says to be cool
I say this is what I live for

Summers end evokes an ache so tender and calm
That sits beneath your chest - demanding to be felt
It’s quiet and consuming
As you lay with it at night
And In the quiet hours it’s what’s keeping you alive

This irreverent sting is all that’s left
In the wake of the snowstorm -
It’s the only reminder there was light before the fall
But fires don’t burn forever - day always turns into night
And the night pales in comparison
And the low is greater than the high
Then that familiar feeling reopens old scars
And you hang there by a thread slighted until you're starved
