House on Fire

In the mirror at the crack of dawn

Try to put a smile on

It doesn't seem to fit my face

I don't recognize you at all

Strangers passing in the hall

Every room is out of place

Tensions between us

Giving us the reasons we need

Pour the gasoline

Lighting it up

Letting it go

Let it go

Our house is on fire

And we're dancing in the street and watching

The funeral pyre of all the things we never wanted

We're holding the matches

No combing the ashes

Our house is on fire

And we're staying up all night to watch it burn

Smoke creeping through the cracks

Like all the words you can't take back

Pointing fingers in the dark

Cut our losses, share the blame

Fan the flicker into flame

It's too late to tame that spark

Tensions between us

Giving us the reasons we need

Pour the gasoline

Lighting it up

Letting it go

Let it go

Our house is on fire

And we're dancing in the street and watching

The funeral pyre of all the things we never wanted

We're holding the matches

No combing the ashes

Our house is on fire

And we're staying up all night to watch it burn

Watch it burn

Watch it burn

Tensions between us

Giving us the reasons we need

Pour the gasoline

Our house is on fire

And we're dancing in the street and watching

The funeral pyre of all the things we never wanted

We're holding the matches

No combing the ashes

Our house is on fire

And we're dancing in the street and watching

The funeral pyre of all the things we never wanted

We're holding the matches

No combing the ashes

Our house is on fire

And we're staying up all night to watch it burn
