"For the flame that burns inside of me"
Engraved in purple font
The silver zippo lighter that you brought from Vietnam
I lit the filthy cigarette bought for the equivalent of 60 cents
Or whatever you said
If you smell smoke
I suggest that you run
I set fire to the ropes
And Im burning down the bridge
I cant save you now
Shaking me awake to go and check out in the kitchen
You swore you heard a sound like there was someone breaking in
Just another time I wondered what I could be missing
Stuck inside the house about to crawl out of my skin
If you smell smoke
I suggest that you run
I set fire to the ropes
And Im burning down the bridge
And if you have hope
I suggest you think again
We're never gonna make it
To the other end

Hiding out on the basement couch
Blocked numbers and locked front doors
No doubt I was safe and sound
Two weeks later you would settle the score
Iris to iris
Saddened by the silence
I hate to tell you but theres nothing to say
The sweetness of revenge
The thrill of getting even
I hope that I can show you someday
Out cold in a pitch black room
I bled on every thread of the bed
No sign of a break in
What doesn't kill me will try again
Try to take what is mine
But I’ll be waiting this time
Iris to iris
Saddened by the silence
Words are useless cause they're never enough
The sweetness of revenge
The thrill of getting even
I hope you fall so hard you never get up

He and the waitress were sharing glances
Like they've got something to hide
Guilty of giving him endless chances
But love is a hard thing to find
You sat and thought of your fathers funeral
And how he looked in the coffin
Each day you swallow your weight loss pill
But it never gets where you want it
Filled the fare on your metro card
To go and watch the parade
You took the R out to sunset park
To keep him out of the way for a day
A message left on your voicemail
But you're out of reach
Don't know what its about
The static repeats with the broken speech
"Get out"
Guilty of giving him endless chances
But love is a hard thing to find
