[Verse 2]
Charlie
How's the weather from your ivory tower?
Have you etched my name on your wall of fame yet?
Charlie
I dreamt that I'd blown up your life
I'm manning the wrecking ball, smoke in my eyes
Not a violent person, it scares me at night
Scares me at night

[Pre-Chorus]
I heard the devil couldn't reach me
So he sent you to
Bleed me dry
Kiss me one more time before

[Chorus]
You send my heart back
Wrapped in barbed wire
And it's dripping black
Held you 'til the bone snapped
Put gas on the fire
But the flame won't last
We're caught in the burnout
Baby, I'm burnt out
No lesson learnt now
You, Charlie
You take it back now

[Bridge]
Charlie, you take it back now
Charlie, I dreamt that I'd blown up your life
I'm manning the wrecking ball, smoke in my eyes
I'm not a violent person, it scares me at night
Scares me at night

[Outro]
You send my heart back
Wrapped in barbed wire
And it's dripping black
Held you 'til the bone snapped
Put gas on the fire
But the flame won't last
We're caught in the burnout
Baby, I'm burnt out
No lesson learnt now
You, Charlie
You take it back now
