The Fire Lyrics by Petal

Shame

2015

[Verse 1]
I'm tearing at your seams
Leaving eyelashes on your pillow case
I'm pulling up your floorboards
To find you've hidden every thought of me
And if there were a chance that I'd never see you again
Can't promise I'd be kind
Can't promise I would say anything
Swimming in fire with my friends near by

[Chorus]
I won't let you forget
You think of me wrongly
I will find you
You can go anywhere I can too

[Verse 2]
I'm shifting in my seat
In your car and you're coming for me
Becoming unhinged
Want to become a part of my skin
Devoted and consumed standing in the back of the room
It's something I'd find
A thought in the back of my mind
Swimming in fire with my friends near by

[Bridge]
You radiate off of me
I just want you to know I don't sleep anymore
Your shaking hands
I'm never alone

[Outro]
I'm not pretty
You don't love me
I'm not funny
You don't love me
I can't die because
You don't love me
I won't stop because
You don't love me
Why won't you love me?
Why won't you love me?
Why won't you love me?
