House on Fire

I can see the storms, in her eyes now

We're 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 sailor 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, oh

Like a house on fire we're up in flames

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

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

And is the soundtrack to our lives

the bang of a slamming door

What happens if we all start to feel like

Nothing matters anymore

Every day like a chamber 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, oh

Like a house on fire we're up in flames

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

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

And 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

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, oh

Like a house on fire we're up in flames

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

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