Adrienne Rossetti - Heat to the Flame

I'm walking on the carpet with dirty feet
I'm banging up the corners with the company I keep
I'm holding to the bad boy as he drives down the streets
And fighting off the bugs with the sad news I read
Well I haven't a crime to my name
On paper I'm looking fundamentally sane
But I never had a lover that would say my name
Strictly to me like the heat to the flame
Like the heat to the flame
Like the heat to the flame
I'm walking on the carpet as he cries out in vain
Repent repent you keep sinning like a fool
Repent repent you keep twisting like a tool
You're happy and that's a sin
Well that's just the state I'm in
I'm holding hands with flowers as I dance down the streets
There's lots of troubled words in the good books I read
I'm not the one that my children I beat
I don't know a saint in the worries you keep
I haven't had a crime to my name
On paper I'm looking fundamentally sane
Never had a lover that will say my name
Strictly to me like the heat to the flame
Like the heat to the flame
Like the heat to the flame
I'm climbing up this mountain with sandals on my feet
I'll eat the potatoes but I won't eat the meat
Do you think that I can take the heat?
I'll bring the rocks since you've brought the sleet
I haven't had a crime to my name
On paper I'm looking fundamentally sane
I never had a lover that would say my name
Strictly to me like the heat to the flame
Like the heat to the flame
Like the heat to the flame
