Playing With Matches Songtext
von My Pet Teratoma

I can see it in your eyes
My sad reflections no surprise
I can′t express my true thoughts
I Can't open myself up
Its the same old can of worms
So instead I sit and squirm
I can′t admit I need you
Without having to leave you

I am doused and gagged by my own heart
Bound to the stake while watching matches spark

Ive gotta be a stoic kinda fool
All Stiff lipped and clinical
When I want to take you
In my arms embrace you
And its a constant source of pain
Fanning embers that I maintain
Wish I could ignore you
I can't help but adore you


I am doused and gagged by my own heart
Bound to the stake while watching matches spark

Can you see the flames, raze
I can't bear for you to know this pain

One day the truth will come to light
Shadows banished as I ignite
My cinders Torched and naked
In the fire I′ve made and
So until that day arrives
I′ll go on building my pyres
There's nothing else I can do
Coz I′m nothing without you

I am doused and gagged by my own heart
Bound to the stake while watching matches spark

Can you see the flames, raze
I can't bear for you to know this pain

I′ll burn for you if it's what you want and
I′ll burn for you if it's what you need
I'll burn for you if it′s what you want
If not then stamp me out


I′ll burn for you if it's what you want and
I′ll burn for you if it's what you need
I′ll burn for you if it's what you want
If not then stamp me out
