Icing Burns

[Intro] [Verse 1] He'll be sorry in the morning You say he's tender when you're home But if I was your man I'd be more than just a cure for being alone You say you see some good in him You can't explain And he's somehow better than The way that he behaves [Hook] But the fact is that in practice His love grinds you like a stone And you're wrapped around the axle now Afraid to let the whole thing go But you can't drain the sea (can't drain the sea) And stay afloat (and stay afloat) Can't take the knot and leave the rope [Verse 2] And water, it won't ever run clear Rinsing your heart out in the sink Staying, all you'll ever get dear Is a paler shade of pink [Hook] But the fact is that in practice His love cuts you to the bone And you're wrapped around the axle now Afraid the let the whole thing go But you can't drain the sea (can't drain the sea) And stay afloat (and stay afloat) Can't take the knot and leave the rope [Verse 3] We've all loved liars But most have learned That those who play with fire Spend their whole lives icing burns [Outro] Yeah, icing burns Icing burns Yeah, icing burns Icing burns [x4]
