Jukebox The Ghost - Lighting Myself on Fire lyrics

When you hold yourself to me

I think I'll go down in flames
Wouldn't ask you to join me
Cause that would be insane
But, you could warm your hands
I would stake out your place
Right here next to me

They will come from miles away
Cause it's cold outside
And they need a place
To rub on their hands and feet
What better time and place than here?
Cause you've become a fire for me
Ever since you turned eighteen, love
And then you said that love was
Just some sort of passing thing
You've become a fire in me
Ever since you turned eighteen
And the cold ain't so cold
When you hold yourself to me

They will come from miles away in your honor
In their Sunday best of sleeveless
Shirts and winter coats
Oh they've been waiting for this for years

You can see it in their eyes
There's a fire there
But, it's not that I'm on fire
Yeah it's deep inside
They're jumping to the peppered sky

Cause you've become a fire for me
Ever since you turned eighteen, love
And then you said that love was
Just some sort of passing thing
You've become a fire in me
Ever since you turned eighteen
And the cold ain't so cold
When you hold yourself to me
Look! You can see it in their eyes
They're afraid that they'll catch fire
Cause, I told them
They're filled with gasoline
Cause it's what my heart desires

All these little birds
Are chirping in their worlds
Twenty feet above the street where
Our footprints are heard

You're wearing it down, you know
When you walk like that
We're not supposed to carry ourselves in
The smalls of our backs
And you're wearing it down, you know
When you walk like that
We're not supposed to carry ourselves in
The smalls of our backs
Yeah you're wearing it down, you know
When you walk like that
We're not supposed to carry ourselves in
The smalls of our backs
