Sleater Kinney - Burn, Don't Freeze Lyrics
Id set your heart on fire but arson is no wayTo make a love burn brighter.(when you saw me, on that first daySaid Id blossom under your care).Always thought that the devil was the only oneWho knew the ins and outs of the ways of love,So I sold off my heart to see how this would end,Now I cant move an inch for fear it will begin.(wrap me up tight inside your wingIs it safe now, is it safe to breathe? )You come in between me and the darkness,Please dont ever leave.(I force my eyes open, and now who has changed?You look different, so different today)Holding your eyes in the hardest stareRunning around like you wanted me thereLookin at me like Im the hottest in townThen turnins your back when youre movin aroundI aint gonna listen to you no moreBreakin outta this place throwin open the doorUse me up just to fan the flameBut youll be sorry as Im walkin away(backwards, forwards going out of my mind,Spinning way off timeFire to water, babys putting me out)Youre the truest light Ive known,But someday Ill learn I dont need your fuel to burn.(Im the one who decides who I amIm the one who will shed this old skin)Always thought that hell was the only placeHot enough to melt our heart into a locked embrace.Theres something so safe about a lack of airThe only way to make sure that youll always be there(I force my eyes open, and now who has changed?I feel different, so different today)Did you really change your mind?Could this be your only crime?
