Maybe I like playing with fire
I like falling for the bad ones
Perhaps I like the feeling
of getting burned

Because the sensation, the heat
Was enough to make me completely
Forget everything

I think I like that
Smoking hot, fire to the touch
Scar my skin
To remind me of the beautiful pain
That will be left after today

Sometimes I love to turn up the heat
From red to blue, come burn me, please

I admit it
I love the journey
Burning broken sticks, trying to find out
What's that special thing
That makes you tick

That special thing
That'll make you explode
Burn me up
This temptations an overload

I love it
I could roast marshmallows
On this whole situation
Chocolate along with crackers
This could be a celebration

When will I understand
Fire can go out
With just one gust of wind
It can make a small flame
Into an entire campout

Burning trees
It's a forest fire

This heat that I've been burning up
Will backfire

And I'll be the one hurt in the end

And I know it, in my head
But my body is craving the warmth of
Your hands, your smile, your skin,
That touch

And the way he looks at me
I swear to god it just warms me up so
Let's start a campfire

On this dangerous situation
I know I'm playing with fire
But I'm ready
So come light me on fire

Come put my whole city on fire

I wish I would think
About the aftermath
Who will be cleaning this mess

I'm willing to burn my whole shit down
While his city remains
Untouched, never got burned down
Never turned to dust

I'm always the one getting caught up
In the end

Always the one hurt
But yet I'll do it again
I tell myself that maybe this time
I won't quickly throw
Lighter fluid on it

I won't get burned this time
Maybe just feel a little sizzle
I mean, of course, the shit gets hot but
It'll be different this time

But I mean, come on
Can you blame me?
I've always been known
To play with fire
