Little Fires

I just don't understand the bitter seed inside your brain They try to hold you, but you cut them when they pull you in You take in love, and then you push all of the love away Who are you hurting now? The wind is howling like the wolves that wait outside the door I've gotten used to them, but you're supposed to be my blood And when you come to crash, we never seem to see the wave But we feel it coming And I know, I know, I know you'll keep a part of me forever But you know, you know, you know I'm not afraid to go without And I don't wait around No, I don't wait for you now I built the rooms of this house to stand ground I'd like to see the sun, I do not feel myself today I never thought, though I suspected things might go this way I kinda feel like you and I are different planets now A million light years away It seems like everywhere you go, there are these little fires You turn and hide it, but I see you crack a little smile You call for me, and then you tell me I should go away Do you just wanna burn and burn, and burn, and burn down? And I know, I know, I know you'll keep a part of me forever And you know, you know, you know I'm not afraid to go without And I don't wait around No, I don't wait for you now I built the rooms of this house to stand ground I know, I know, I know you'll keep a part of me forever Yeah, you know, you know, you know I'm not afraid to go without But I don't wait around No, I don't wait for you now I built the rooms of this house to stand ground And you were young and beautiful And I was dumb and beautiful And in the end we all burned, little fires In the end we all burned, little fires In the end we all burned, little fires In the end we all burned, little fires
