Better Off On Fire Lyrics

Sometimes I think

I’d be better off on fire

It seems like the worst

It’s probably for the best

Forgive my mistakes

I’m sorry for the mess

I’ll end it with a thanks

You don’t wanna know the rest

Try to just forget

You’re better off

Don’t be sad

I was wrong to be mad

Hear the song of my guilt

As I fall into ash

Like the last grain of sand

Through a heart made of glass

Like a palm full of love

Feel my warmth on your back

Sometimes I think

I’d be better off on fire

Sometimes I think

You’d be better off not knowing

The person that I am

The casual defeat

The person that I’m not

And the chasm in between

But none of that’ll matter

If I leave

Just my laughter in the breeze

You’re better off

Have a seat

I’ll lay down at your feet

I just wanna go to sleep

I been at it for a week

I been peeking out the window

At the shadows in the street

I can hear ‘em saying something

‘Bout how they wanna meet

But they applaud

How dramatic I can be

I said you ain’t seen nothing yet

So please sink your teeth

In my neck and squeeze down

We’ll see what you get

A mouth full of sunburn

The heat from your breath

My worst flaw at 300x

You’re better off

Staying put

I’m a flame to the foot

House fire to the head

Warpaint with the soot

Take up far more space

Than I should

If I could just shrink myself

Down to Planck length

Then I would

Sometimes I think

I’d be better off real tiny

Like real, real tiny

Sometimes I think

We’d be better off uncertain

Of where we seen the face

We don’t know what it meant

A whisper from a past life

Floating on a scent

A memory that rode in

With the wind

Just a thought

That came and went

You’re better off

Keep my clothes

And feed me to the crows

I appreciate the fact

That I appreciate the lows

I got long dark hallways

That need to be exposed

Pull the noose just tight enough

To keep me on my toes

Sometimes I think

I’d be better off on…

Sometimes I think

I’d be better off on fire

Fire, fire

Give me any reason in the world

To not erupt and set it all on fire

Fire, fire

Make the village burn

’Til I’m warm enough

To feel sorry that it’s on fire

Fire, fire

Everything is not enough

It would give me life

Just to light you on fire

Hell fire, pure fire, purifier

Burn fire, burn, I return fire

Fight fire with…

(Fire, hell fire, blue fire, purer fire

Burn fire, burn, I return fire

Fight fire with fire

I never knew you

I never knew you but I’m

I never knew you but I’m sorry

I, you, sorry

I never knew you

I never knew you but I’m

I never knew you but I’m sorry

I never knew you

I never knew, sorry

I never knew you but I’m

I never knew you but I’m sorry)
