House On Fire Lyrics

I can see the storms in her eyes now

I'm falling overboard in the waves

In over my head and she's a high tide

That keeps pushing me away

I thought that we would build this together

But everything I touch just seems to break

Am I your sail or your anchor?

Am I the calm or the hurricane?

I feel the ground start to shake

I hear a voice shouting "No"

But there is no fucking way

I'd leave you

So I'll just hold you like a hand grenade

You touch me like a razor blade

I wish there was some other way right now, ooo

Like a house on fire we're wrapped in flames

I'd burn you if that's what it takes

To let you know I won't let go of you,

But is the soundtrack to our lives

Is the pain of a slamming door

What happens when we all start to feel like

Nothing matters anymore

Every day like a chambered round, a trigger pulled

A hammer click, a breath we hold

A world outside I can't control

No matter what I do

So I'll just hold you like a hand grenade

You touch me like a razor blade

I wish there was some other way right now, ooo

Like a house on fire we're wrapped in flames

I'd burn you if that's what it takes

To let you know I won't let go of you, oooooo

How is it a thing

That we just wanna hurt each other

I'm waiting on for rain

Cause life is gonna rain forever

Someday you will learn

That all I ever did was for you

And I would do it all again

I would do it all again

Till then I'll hold you like a hand grenade

You touch me like a razor blade

I wish there was some other way right now, oooo

Like a house on fire we're wrapped in flames

I'd burn you if that's what it takes

To let you know I can't let go of you,

Of you,

Of you,

Of you,

Of you
