Leave the pictures in the frames on the walls Leave the ghost of you and me in the halls Leave the TV on in the living room, ah Let the memories disappear in the smoke Deep breath, let 'em go even if I choke I know I'll be breathing easy soon I'm watching the flame do what it does I'm watching a name turn into dust I'm pourin' gasoline on a king-sized mattress Light it up with some dive bar matches As hot as it is right now You can't rise from the ashes 'til you burn the house down Looks good from the outside looking in Felt more like lying though, living it Scared to make a move, I'm scared to make a mess, ah You can't stitch up this kind of broken heart Open eyes can't go back into the dark I can't live a new life with the same address I'm watching the flame do what it does I'm watching a name turn into dust I'm pourin' gasoline on a king-sized mattress Light it up with some dive bar matches As hot as it is right now You can't rise from the ashes 'til you burn the house down Until you burn the house down Until you burn the house down Until you burn the house down From the ceiling to the floor From the back porch to the front door Little bit stronger, little bit older No one tells you how to start over I'm watching the flame do what it does I'm watching a name turn into dust I'm pourin' gasoline on a king-sized mattress Light it up with some dive bar matches As hot as it is right now You can't rise from the ashes 'til you burn the house down Ah, I can't rise from the ashes 'til I burn the house down
