To Keep From Getting Burned

(album: When Love Met Destruction - 2008)

No amount of words will ever express my utter disgust
At that fact that you're still alive, at the fact that you
If I had one chance to do anything I could to you
I'd watch you suffer as you beg for help
You don't deserve to live the rest of your life as you are
You are worthless, a fucking cheap cigar

Everything that you ever loved will be taken away the moment you shut your eyes
Of all the things you've ever done
The worst has been the past few months
It's hard to keep from getting burned
When love is like fire

I've learned to make friends with the fire
To keep from getting burned, to keep from getting burned

I only had one heart to give, one heart to give
And you only had one heart to take
And I wish this plague upon both your houses, so that I might sleep in peace tonight
And as I put my ear to your mouth to hear your one last dying breath of words
I whispered back, “be still my dear, for this will only hurt a second“
but not even hell would forgive me for what I'm about to do to you

Everything you ever loved will be taken away the moment you shut your eyes
So say goodbye
Move this floor

Everything that you ever loved will be taken away the moment you shut your eyes
Of all the things you've ever done
The worst has been the past few months
It's hard to keep from getting burned
When love is like fire

Love will kill us all [x5]
