How did I lose all my remnants of self control
You made me somebody that I don’t even know
I'm chasing your shadows and I know that you’re up to no good
I'm too close to fire
You’re telling me it’s out
But you can only blame yourself
You’re staring at the ashes holding onto matches
Wondering if you burned it down
Looking at the damage, lying ‘bout what happened
Boy, you better shut your mouth
Because I'm done with all your shit
Do you even know [?]
Fumbling all over your mess
Watching smoke come from your lips
You’re staring at the ashes holding onto matches
You know what happened
The truth is you’re wounded and I know your reasons why
You’re jaded and I hate it, the madness in your mind
Your selfish destruction is the silent alarm in my head
You started a fire
You’re telling me it’s out
But you can only blame yourself
You’re staring at the ashes holding onto matches
Wondering if you burned it down
Looking at the damage, lying ‘bout what happened
Boy, you better shut your mouth
Because I'm done with all your shit
Do you even know [?]
Fumbling all over your mess
Watching smoke come from your lips
You’re staring at the ashes holding onto matches
You know what happened
Holding onto matches
Matches, matches
Holding onto matches
Matches, matches
You know what happened
Staring at the ashes holding onto matches
Looking at the damage, lying ‘bout what happened
You’re staring at the ashes holding onto matches
Wondering if you burned it down
Looking at the damage, lying ‘bout what happened
Boy, you better shut your mouth
Because I'm done with all your shit
Do you even know [?]
Fumbling all over your mess
Watching smoke come from your lips
You’re staring at the ashes holding onto matches
You know what happened
Holding onto matches
Matches, matches
Holding onto matches
Matches
You know what happened
