House Fire

It started in the rafters And after, it went every which way You're always burning those hollow hallways I tracked you down, your guilty crown Flames keep falling from your mouth Still you know I'd love to put you out if I could You're burning like a house fire Turning blackest night as bright as day Keeping all the neighborhood awake What's it gonna take for me to save you, house fire? House fire I'm silencing the subtle way of speaking Like you don't know just what I mean You're always turning a deaf ear toward me It's only getting worse for you These impulse moves and vacant actions you excuse You know I'd put you out if I could And this is the part you see That everything I've done was for your good You're burning like a house fire Turning blackest night as bright as day Keeping all the neighborhood awake What's it gonna take for me to save you? You're burning like a house fire Turning blackest night as bright as day Keeping all the neighborhood awake What's it gonna take for me to save you? Maybe in another place Maybe in another time No, there's only right here, right now No point in pulling that line Princess of ash heaps, queen of the pyre Whether you think that it's holy Know that a fire's still a fire's still a fire's still a fire And you're burning House fire Turning blackest night as bright as day Keeping all the neighborhood awake What's it gonna take for me to save you? You're burning like a house fire Turning blackest night as bright as day Keeping all the neighborhood awake What's it gonna take for me to save you, house fire?
