Up In Flames
Fell asleep on your shoulder,
and when I woke up I was covered in questions.
We had a fire that smouldered,
but suffocated in a cloud of rejection.
What happened when you said
'I'll never ignore you, you know I love you I'd do anything for you'?
What you gonna do when it all goes up in flames?
When your luck's gone running
and your dream's gone sour
and you've only got yourself to blame?
When it all goes up in flames?
Fell asleep in a corner
and when I woke up I was covered in scratches.
Without a fire I'm dormant,
give me a lover and a packet of matches.
What happened when you said
'Hold on for me, Baby'?
It's not the ending, it's the waiting 'round that scares me.
What you gonna do when it all goes up in flames?
When your luck's gone running
and your dream's gone sour
and you've only got yourself to blame?
When it all goes up in flames,
when it all goes up in
And when you think you're on a hiding to nothing,
hide it, hide it, don't let anybody know.
It's a fool who lets their colours show.
Broke me my heart, wrote me a letter,
no one wrote back, no one, no, never.
I was too young, I was too clever,
now I've grown up but I know no better.
What you gonna do when it all goes up in flames?
When your luck's gone running
and your dream's gone sour
and you've only got yourself to blame?
When it all goes up in
What you gonna do when it all goes up in flames?
When your luck's gone running
and your dream's gone sour
and your heart don't feel the same?
When it all goes up in flames.
