Gasoline

We were walking in a circle, hand in hand

And you feet were sinking deeper in the sand than mine

You had sold me the mansion in your head

I would cut your hair, and you would dye it red as fire

As a crackling fire

I would hold the phone, so you were not alone

I had to take you home, you could not drive

You had smiled when you told me you were brave

That your life was in other hands to save, not mine

I saw the mansion you had made me love ignite

And as you were fading, it was growing bright with fire

With a crackling fire

When you tried to stand, you had to take my hand

You said, "I think your plan will be splitting from mine"

We made a pile of all your remaining clothes

Where you're headed now, you won't be needing those, it's fine

We soaked the pile 'till it dripped with gasoline

And I lit a match as if I'd never seen a fire

It was a big roaring fire

Then your heartbeat failed

It stopped leaving its trails

The last thing you exhaled while you were alive was

I am alright, I am alright, I'm doin' just fine

I am alright, I am alright, I'm doin' just fine, yeah!
