The Match ft. STEV & Gentlecrook Lyrics

In a dream awakened from the past

With the taste of tangerines and waves of Pendergrass

Way back in time before I knew you

I heard a voice forewarning me that nothing good can last

And it kills my heart

And it kills my heart

And it kills my heart

Climb the trees with broken branches

Tell the lies that make me anxious

Strike me, let the friction catch

The match, the match, the match-match

Strike the match

In a fitful fright I saw the moon

With hair like radiation, eyes disloyal blue

Way back in time before eye contact

Luna told me Heaven's gates can't be entered two-by-two

And it kills my heart

And it kills my heart

And it kills my heart

Eat the words that nauseate you

Write the rules that make hate you

Burn a life of better things

I will be your effigy

So trace the path up to the hill

Ignite it if it's still your will

Strike me, let the friction catch

The match, the match, the match-match

Strike the match

In a dream projected by the stars

They were all just fireflies escaping from their jars

Way back in time before we connected

The here and now belongs to them

But the past will always be ours

And it kills my heart

And it kills my heart

And it kills my heart

And it kills my heart

And it kills my heart
