The Burning - Ghoultown

Never did hear what you say

I don’t need it anyway

Never could see what you saw

They wouldn’t suspect love at all

Now i’m on fire and you’re on your way

Like human candles lit to burn away

Midnight rises and here we are

You scratch at my soul

But i’m so far gone

Chorus:

I don’t want no one

I don’t need no one

I take no lovers in my bad

I don’t want no one

I don’t need no one

The flames of fire burn down to the end

You may cry and you may beg

Spit on the flame that’s in my head

You may curse me i don’t care

I’ll show you paradise i swear

Now i’m burning the cold you embrace

We always take more than we gave

Like seas that eat their pieces of eight

Open, swallow, lock you away

I am exploding

I am consumed

By the fire that i feel for you

Like a ghost without fame or fortune

To love and to hold

To cherish to torture
