Embers

Your words were like daggers in my chest

My walls you shattered in one breath

You're gold and I feel silver

It's the way I've always been

And now you leave like all the rest

You say go don't say you let me down again

You don't mean to but I'm tired of getting tired

Please just go don't take me to the ground again

I don't hate you

But my friends they keep on telling me you're

Bad news and playing with fire is for fools

We're young and we're stupid

But too soon I'll burn down all that you knew

And leave you with the embers

You're bad news

And playing with fire is for fools

We're young and we're stupid

But too soon I'll burn down all that you do

And leave with the embers

Love don't think about what I need

All I wanted was for you to love me

If time was like an hourglass

I would play us in reverse

So then I'd be the one to undo the hurt

You say go don't stay and let me down again

You don't mean to but I'm tired of getting tired

Please just go don't take me to the ground again

I don't hate you

But my friends they keep on telling me you're

Bad news and playing with fire is for fools

We're young and we're stupid

But too soon I'll burn down all that you knew

And leave you with the embers you're

Bad news and playing with fire is born fools

We're young and we're stupid but too soon

I'll burn down all that you do

And leave you with the embers
