Burn

You’re a gift
But more than this
You’re a curse
How can I get away with it
When we kiss, I feel such bliss
It’s the worst
But I can’t stop replaying it
A victim of my own demise
A slave to my desire
‘Cause I found hell in paradise
And, oh, how I try
But I just can’t just kill the buzz
Can somebody
Just sedate me
Make me numb
Woah
But you can’t hide from the sun
Or can’t run when your love is blinding me
So I’ll stand in the pounding rain
Praying I don’t feel the same
But there’s no ocean to drown the pain
The more I fight the love that I found
The brighter the flames
Some fires never burn out
Some fires never burn out
Some fires never burn out
I admit these chains aren’t keeping me safe
Forever, I’m your prisoner
In your grip, it’s just the risk that I take
It’s worth the pain that I endure
A victim of my own demise
A slave to my desire
‘Cause I found hell in paradise
And, oh, how I try
But I can’t just kill the buzz
Can somebody
Just sedate me
Make me numb
Woah
But you can’t hide from the sun
Or can’t run when your love is blinding me
So I’ll stand in the pounding rain
Praying I don’t feel the same
But there’s no ocean to drown the pain
The more I fight the love that I found
The brighter the flames
Some fires never burn out
All the tears, they fall in vein
Baby
All they do is flame the fire
Lover
But there’s a toll to these mistakes
Locked me in, I can’t escape
Some fires never burn out
Some fires never burn out
Some fires never burn out
Some fires never burn out
Some fires never burn out
Some fires never burn out
Some fires never burn out
Some fires never burn out
