Wildfire
Candied calamity
Stuck in my teeth
Clung to me just like a cancer
The sky fell
The world rot
I wilted away in an office couch
And yet you still raged on
When I was little
I was taught to garden
So I spilled my pockets on plants
And you always let them die
Because I was evergreen
You were an arsonist
You forgot about me in a week
But my garden is still dead
Wildfire
Waste away omniscient queen
Can't burn water
So I'll drive into the deep
You want to date a doctor, a psychologist, you want to date your mom
You want somebody to take care of you, provide you with a job
You want a punching bag, a screaming match, an opponent who won't swing
You want a nice girl with no money who will give you everything
You need cathedrals with no God so you can sit upon the throne and
You need everyone to worship you so you don't feel alone
And you need guillotines and diamond rings, you need to have their heads
You need to take and take and take and take until there's nothing left
You need to take a gun and shoot your targets right between their eyes
You force your prey to crawl to you to hold you when you wanna cry
You are the lion and the lamb and you are heaven and you're sin
You eat out your own heart and then you beg for ours instead
Wildfire
Told me it's just flowers
It don't matter
I'm done playing make-believe
You fucking liar
A traitor who won't let me leave
You stole my favorite flowers
And you tortured them for hours
Wish I noticed that you had painted all your white flags
Wish I noticed all the crimson bleeding through all the cracks
Wish I threw them all away into a turpentine bath
You burn on and on and on and on and
I want to scream at you until I'm red in the face
I want to feel the power you so desperately craved
Know how to keep me charred while I decay in the rain
You burn on and on and on and on and
Ooh
I feel so cold
Ooh
I feel so cold
Ooh
I feel so old
Ooh
They wanna know
