Watch the Embers

"Will this heart of mine be forgiving

Will the seed of revenge find hollow ground?

You tell me you are looking for a better way of living

And you aren't satisfied with what you've found.

Oh, these cold walls of ours start to tremble,

throwing memories of you knocking me down.

Now I am lying on the floor and watching embers

Slowly dying like our love and burning out.

You must've thought married life would be one big party

'Cause you wasted all our money on cheap red wine.

You weren't made for working hard or getting dirty,

Love is like fire, you need to tend it or it dies with time.

Oh, these cold walls of ours start to tremble,

Throwing memories of you knocking me down.

Now I am lying on the floor and watching embers

Slowly dying like our love and burning out,

Now I'm lying on the floor covered in embers,

Watching everything we built come crashing down."
