Fire 2

Stopped my crying Now I'm just settled outside of my brain Voices trying I feel them all slide through me like the touch of rain again and Mmm, mmm Well honey, it's a hellish sight Mmm, mmm If you saw me in the middle of the night and I was Light fires for a little light in a blackout Baby, could you let it slide? I lit a fire on the other side I keep the door tight, baby, 'cause you're not invited and I can't get higher than I ever was I tried it one time, honey, but you never saw that and Lit a fire for a little light In a blackout, baby, kept you up all night Stopped my lying Now I'm just floating outside of my weight My voice is tired I heard it fall flat when I said, "Maybe I'll try again," and I, well honey, yeah, I got that one wrong now, didn't I? Mmm, mmm When you saw me in the middle of night and I was Light fires on the other side I keep the door tight, baby, 'cause you're not invited and I can't get higher than I ever was I tried it two times, honey, but you never saw that and Lit a fire for a little light in a blackout Baby, kept you up all night, and I I can't keep hanging on to one and done I tried it two times, honey, but it always comes undone I sing in churches, and I drive myself home, and I Say to myself, "Well, that's the way these things go" I'm blue as a match, I'm unkempt, unattached, I'm the Shadow of a girl who's just doing her best I lay in my nest and I'm fat and half pretty A hand to my chest and a view of the city That hangs in my window, it's always the same, yeah, I Grew up on pavement, know no other way Light fires on the other side I keep the door tight, baby, 'cause you're not invited, and I can't get higher than I ever was I tried it two times, honey, but you never saw that and Lit a fire for a little light in a blackout Baby, kept you up all night, and I I can't keep hanging on to one and done I tried it two times, honey, but it always comes undone
