the candle's burning down
wax is dripping off the table
our hearts are melting like the wax
making us unstable
you say you don't want it
but should i go away
we'll get ourselves together
we'll change our stubborn ways
we burn each other down
we burn each other down
we burn each other down
we burn each other down
i have to light you up
i have to light you up
i have to light you up
i have to light you up
i remember my old love
the one i never had
he was careful with his flame
left me feeling sad
he'd light me with his eyes
he'd light me with his songs
he'd never give his soul
to someone else in love
he'd never give away
never give away
kept his precious heart
that pretty heart shape
i want to light you up
i want to light you up
i want to light you up
i want to light you up
we burn each other down
we burn each other down
we burn each other down
we burn each other down
i want to light you up
i want to light you up
i want to light you up
i want to light you up
we burn each other down
we burn each other down
we burn each other down
