Starting Fires

[Verse 1]

I keep lighting fires and I keep punching walls

I keep holding my breath and I keep poking holes

Ohh (Ohh)

Ohh (Ohh)

[Verse 2]

I keep smashing glasses and I keep falling down

I lay in the pieces and I keep rolling around

Ohh (Ohh)

Ohh (Ohh)

[Verse 3]

I'll sleep on my sofa and you can sleep in my bed

I'll never feel whole but you're as close as I'll get

Ohh (Ohh)

Ohh (Ohh)

[Bridge]

You can be the husband, I can be your wife

We can pretend we can cope with real life

White picket fences and stable jobs

Three little faces and a couple of dogs

You can be the husband, I can be your wife

We can pretend we'll get over our strife

Having conversations we've never had before

You'll be drinking whisky as I walk out the door

[Verse 4]

I walk to the seafront and jump in fully clothed (Ohh)

And I keep wandering aimless, oh shit, I don't even know (Ohh)

Woah (Ohh)

Woah (Ohh)

[Outro]

I keep starting fires and I keep poking holes

I keep holding my breath 'cause I am nothing at all
