Hanging In The Flame Lyrics

Feel the rope grip your throat

Tension squeezing out your breath

Taut whispers fill your ear

Singing as you dangle there

Fear says object there is none

Passion plays not for everyone

Time's lullaby counts you down

Coming due, coming back around

You're hanging there dear

By your arms not your neck

You're not too old, no not yet

Let the heat crawl up your leg

Hanging in the flame

It's a fixed game, a world of pain

No gain, the rules aren't the same

Holster your ego and take it

Spread your brass on the table

Drink yourself into blackness

Hurtle your heels into darkness

Launched off the hot macadam

No plan, no return, a blazon madman

You're hanging there dear

By your arms not your neck

You're not too old, no not yet

Let the heat crawl up your leg

Hanging in the flame

Don't let it burn but don't forget

This feeling, your appetite whet

Light both ends of your cigarette

Two feet above the lick of it

You're hanging there dear

By your arms not your neck

You're not too old, no not yet

Let the heat crawl up your leg

Hanging in the flame

Don't let it burn but don't forget

This feeling, your appetite whet

Light both ends of your cigarette

Two feet above the lick of it

Don't get burned

Don't get burned

Hold on

Hanging in the flame

Don't get burned

Don't get burned

Hold on

Hanging in the flame

Take my hand

Take my hand

Hold on

Hanging in the flame

Take my hand

Take my hand

Hold on

Hanging in the flame
