Gasoline

(album: Out Loud - 2022)

Hear the cold gasoline pour
Dripping down to the first floor
As I make my way out of your house tonight
Strike a match, let it hit the ground
Shadows dancing without a sound
Those soft neon lights

Burning down the home you're trying to rebuild
Another night when I'm someone else
I cut the breaks right out from under my heart
I dig our graves with my bare hands 'til they've scarred

So rip the bandage off, then you could heal me
'Cause I couldn't let go if it killed me
And so I watch myself betray the real me
And I can't come down, I can't come down

Lay in bed tryna fall asleep
Look the other way to try and find peace
You found out that you're seeing ghosts again
Hear the door from behind you slam
White and red from a clenched hand
Why don't you scream a bit louder?

Burning down the home you're trying to rebuild
Another night when I'm someone else

So rip the bandage off, then you could heal me
'Cause I couldn't let go if it killed me
And so I watch myself betray the real me
And I can't come down, I can't come down

This house is a labyrinth
And I can't find my way out now
It's just like a nightmare
And I can't wake up, no I can't wake up
The walls are collapsing
And I can't find my way out now
I would take anything to kill this pain
Gasoline, gasoline

So rip the bandage off, then you could heal me
Cause I couldn't let go if it killed me
And so I watch myself betray the real me
And I can't come down, I can't come down
The walls are collapsing
And I can't find my way out now
I would take anything to kill this pain
Gasoline, gasoline
