Lyrics

Build A Fire

[Verse 1]

You're left alone with your thoughts all day

When someone calls you tell them that you're ok

Outside the long low shadows creep

You put away the past and you try to go to sleep

[Verse 2]

Time to build a fire

Time to light it up

Time to let it burn bright and then it's time to stop

And then it's time to stop

[Chorus]

I never knew you could be that way

I never knew you would hurt me

I never knew you could be that way

I never knew you would hurt me, hurt me

[Verse 3]

Back in the empty city again

Waiting for your passport, running from your friends

Outside thеy're burning down the past

They'rе dreaming in their sleep if they think it's gonna last

[Verse 4]

The night goes 90 miles an hour

The terrifying dawn is unfolding like a flower

They live a life of quiet despair

They turn to pull you in but they never find you there

They never find you there

[Chorus]

I never knew you could be that way

I never knew you would hurt me

I never knew you could be that way

I never knew you would hurt me, hurt me

I never knew you could be that way

I never knew you would hurt me

I never knew you could be that way

I never knew you would hurt me, hurt me

[Verse 2]

Time to build a fire

Time to light it up

Time to let it burn bright and then it's time to stop

Time to build a fire

Time to light it up

Time to let it burn bright and then it's time to stop

[Verse 5]

Time to feed a fire

Time to fill your cup

The heat eats everything and it's never going to stop

Time to feed a fire

Time to fill your cup

The world will keep on turning it's never gonna stop

No, it's never gonna stop

[Outro]

I never knew you could be that way

I never knew you could be that way
