I've watched you burn your house down ten times over
Just to make sure I don't get colder
but when I see a fire I see burns.
And so away I'll run
though I'm cold and our home is none.
You built me a city upside down with nothing but gravity and ground.
Just to make sure my pretty face don't frown.
but when I see the ground I see your grave.
And so away I'll run
Though you're cold and your bones have gone.
Though you're cold and your bones have gone.
It's a terrible love and I hate this place.
Instead of run I'll wipe these ashes off your face.
I've watched you burn our house down ten times over.
I've seen wild fires in October, and the kind of pain you don't get over.
But when I see a fall, I see a great fire.
So I'll run though I'm gravity bound and and you're sleeping sound.
Asleep so sound, you will never wake.
It's a terrible love and I hate this place.
