Emery - Playing with Fire

Pardon me for saying so
But you look more pitiful
Than I had ever imagined
Despite perfect fashion
And your photographs depict you so differently
I always thought you would be
Some sort of match for me

So let's decide who can survive
Jumping feet and racing beats
Of hearts that don't ever slow
Then I'll write letters on white paper
Expressing my deep disappointment

Dripping where I stand
From my watery hands
Hoping to get past the open bedroom door
Where her clothes on the floor
Remind me of our conversation
The feeling of slight hesitation
To turn out the light

Fourteen days now (I'm not)
Since we started (I'm not hiding)
To complicate the situation (From this situation)
I'm not hiding (I'm not)
I'm just buying some time (I'm not hiding)
For us to find the back door (From this situation)

We will come out
When it's safe for us
When it's safe for us
When it's safe for us
Us
For us
All

There's nothing left to say (Don't believe me)
To excuse the way that I behaved (When I say it's over)
I still feel him
Gripping like a stain (By the time you're gone)
To this fabric (It's almost over)
Torn at every seam
Thrown away

I'm without regret
I will not forget
I'm without regret
I will not forget

Why should I take all the blame for all my mistakes? (I?m without regret)
You were there with every promise made to break (I will not forget)
When did you become the one without regret? (I?m without regret)
Kill me, burn me down, I swear I won't forget (I will not forget)
When did you become the one without regret (Kill me, kill me)
Kill me, burn me down, I swear I won't forget (Kill me, kill me)
