Smell like something burning

Burning to the ground

Got to see if they around

And take out the siren

Through the timing wasn't good

Lonely chimneys stood

Know what way the wind blows was the word that passed around

Hell had come to this small town

And when I awoke to find that smoke had filled the air

I knew that you were there

'Cause I would see you walking

Passed my window time to time

The smell of something burning

Never was too far behind

And I would float around you

Like a moth floats round a flame

And every time I was without you

I'd be calling out your name

Crying Jane

Sweet summer rain

In out of the cold and while the old man is asleep

To your bedroom door ill creep

And I won't make a sound for if the old man should awake

My life I'm sure he'll take

Someday you'll fly away you said to me in bed when we'd embrace

Smell just like a fire place

You said the time had come to leave and not return

Tonight this house will burn

If you walk me through these hallways I will always be your queen

come to my cursive kitchen with a can of kerosene

Leave this house and leave that old man burning in our wake

Leave my demons dying in the bonfire that we make

That we make

'Cause I have burned and I have blistered

I have turned and I have twisted

In the fires that existed but burns no more

They search the ash and embers for the things you left behind

Evidence they could not find

You left me lonely but I know that you'll return

My time comes to burn

So I'm going to stick to leaving

'Cause I haven't got much time

Smell of something burning

Never was too far behind

And while it crumbles down around me

While my world goes up in flames

I now beg the lord for mercy

I'll be calling out your name

Crying Jane, Jane, Jane, Jane

In the sweet summer rain

And though I'm drunk and still I drink

And though I'm sunk and still I sink

And I don't care what you folks think

And I will burn no more
