This one was a true romance; how the plot's thick and twisted,
Too good to be real, too real to be fake,
I swear you'll be the death of me, when all this friction created generates too much heat
If you cared, you'd walk away right now
'Cause everything in me wants you despite all the pain I withstand
I didn't light this fire, but how it burns, burns, burns

Now there's sirens down the street tonight, I can hear them coming

So get up from this bed that's coming down in flames
Reach for the alarm, 'cause baby, we're ablaze
I'm crashing to the ground, more than a heart can take
So pull me from this wreck, 'cause baby, we're ablaze

You're the picture in the locket, the gun in the chest,
The fire which, upon me lately, is set
Yeah, you're the fuel and the cinder, completely contained
You're my birth and my death, all in the same

Now there's sirens down the street tonight, I can hear them coming

So get up from this bed that's coming down in flames
Reach for the alarm, 'cause baby, we're ablaze
I'm crashing to the ground, more than a heart can take
So pull me from this wreck, 'cause baby, we're ablaze
Now there's sirens down the street tonight, I can hear them coming

So pull me from this wreck (We're ablaze! )

So get up from this bed that's coming down in flames
Reach for the alarm, 'cause baby, we're ablaze
I'm crashing to the ground, more than a heart can take
So pull me from this wreck, 'cause baby, we're ablaze

We're ablaze!
