Seems like so long ago now
But I can still remember those feelings 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?
Make you feel like no man in the world wanted you
Make 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 pretense)
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
Make me feel like no man in the world wanted you
Make me feel like no woman in the world wanted me
