Seems like so long ago now



But I can still remember those feelings



Of being left alone with myself



Sitting in the garden



Watching our house burn



Knowing I couldn't help it



It always had to end in a big statement like that



We were always so intense



Out of control



We never understood what we had



Never knew how to deal with it



Always tearing at each other



The violence and the shame



Banging my head against the wall



Wanting to explode





And it was my idea



And I put you there



I lied and said I didn't want you



You were running to someone else



Breaking the spell



Being able to see me for what I really was



And then the flames





Wanted you



Make me feel like no man in the world wanted you



Still feel the flame



Still feel the cold



Still feel the flame



Gets so cold around the stove



They still reach for me



Where you gonna go now



They still reach for me



Where you gonna go now





Made you feel like no man in the world wanted you



Made me feel like no woman in the world wanted me





Still feel the flame



Some days it seems I've left those feelings so far behind



Still feel the cold



But they're always there, waiting





Still feel the flame



Tempting, trying to release you



It's so cold around the stove



Don't believe, don't cherish your pretence



They still reach for me



You strike a match



Where you gonna go now



The thrill of having nothing



They still reach for me



The smell of the flames



Where you gonna go now





Made me feel like no man in the world wanted you



Made me feel like no woman in the world wanted me
