An Arsonist Like Me lyrics

I burn this fire for you tonight
I sing this song with all my might
And hope the flame will see the light of day
I found a way to keep it in
To keep it down beneath my sin
And no one's gonna tell me when to pay

In a trailer far away
Beside myself I saw a day
When all the dogs would spray a common tree
So when you see the sky look black
You smell the smoke and feel the crack
Look into my eyes and make believe

I know I'm not like him and I don't want to be
How could you fall in love with an arsonist like me?

I put my ear against the ground
The bastardation of a sound
Came round the corner and it knocked me down
