Fires

Don't overcomplicate it

You say those words with no effort

I feel so isolated

I miss the lie that we lived

All these clichés like ghosts

Are floating in my head

I wish that I never saw

Who you really are

You set too many fires in my life

In the distance I still see your gaslight

You set too many fires in my life

(In my life, in my life, in my life)

In the distance I still see your gaslight

You were never ever a lover

That was only ever a cover

Where are my instructions?

How do I fix what you've burnt

To re-emerge victorious?

I wear my heart on my sleeve

I wanted to believe

That you were different

But you weren't

You set too many fires in my life

(In my life, in my life, in my life)

In the distance I still see your gaslight

(You were never ever a lover)

(That was only ever a cover)

You set too many fires in my life

(In my life, in my life, in my life)

In the distance I still see your gaslight

You were never ever a lover

That was only ever a cover

You set too many fires in my life

(In my life, in my life, in my life)

In the distance I still see your gaslight

(You were never ever a lover)

(That was only ever a cover)

You set too many fires in my life

(In my life, in my life, in my life)

In the distance I still see your gaslight

You were never ever a lover

That was only ever a cover
