House on Fire Lyrics

I am a house on fire

A burning effigy

How do manage

Holding me

And I'm lover like a pistol shot

You're bedside prayer

Hands pointed like a pirouette

I'm a brick in the air

You're a feather

Better

Than I could could ever be

Kissing my feet and the street beneath

Is this what you need

Is this what you need

Is this what you wanted

Is this what you wanted

I am a forest fire

I watch the others flee

How do you manage

Holding me

And if you stick and it doesn't hurt

Baby you'd be the first

Hands pointed like a pirouette

I'm a brick in the air

You're a feather

Never

Gonna let me

Give into something sweet

Is this what you need

Is this what you need

Is this what you wanted

Is this what you wanted

Is this what you wanted

Is this what you want

And if you stick and it doesn't hurt

Baby you'd be the first

And if you stick and it doesn't hurt

Baby you'd be the first

Is it

Is it

Is it

Is it

Is this what you need

Is this what you need

Is this what you need

What you wanted

What you wanted

What you wanted

What you wanted

What you wanted

What you wanted

What you wanted

What you wanted
