I start these fires and she can't put them out
And I understand the words that she always shouts at me
^I don't really think the "at me" Is necessary here, because "out" and "shouts" rhyme. If you wanted the other to rhyme its ok how it is, but it just sounds better the other way for me.
Lacks that of care free
Now don't try to be cute don't try to be cruel
And I am not here to play the part of the fool
I'm not your tool
(Chorus)
Now my heart is trembling
Fingers so restlessly
Trying to find a threshold to climb
Higher and higher
On top of this ladder
The fire escape, where fires take place
So don't question me, I won't question you
And don't tell me all the unhealthy things that you do
Inhale all these fumes
Let's follow each other or we'll both die here
Die so brave or die shrouded in fear
No time for tears
(Chorus)
Now my heart is trembling
Fingers so restlessly
Trying to find a threshold to climb
Higher and higher
On top of this ladder
The fire escape, where fires take place
From here I'll scream
Rooftops to streets
About the day flames take me away
I'm not coming down
To viscous a crowd
You'll just judge me, flames set me free
^Seems like here you should have "the flames set me free"
I'm sorry I failed you
I led you to the roof
You can jump please survive
Or I'll have taken your life
(Chorus)
Now my heart is trembling
Fingers so restlessly
Trying to find a threshold to climb
Higher and higher
On top of this ladder
The fire escape, where fires take place
From here I'll scream
Rooftops to streets
About the day flames take me away
I'm not coming down
To viscous a crowd
You'll just judge me, flames set me free
