Two Fires

Two fires

One for sin and one desire

They’ll turn your ashes into dust

 

I got burned

I ran away and then I returned

Mistaking all my loneliness for lust

Neither one gonna hurt you baby

You got nothing to burn

 

Two fires

They’ll follow you to the funeral pyre

And scorch your soul in the end

You got burned

But somehow you learned

How to make both those fires your friends

Some people just give up

Pour the fire into their cup

And it eats em up inside

You can see it in their eyes

See it in their eyes

Two fires

They’ll tell the truth, they’ll make you a lair

Keep them at arm’s reach if you can

 

 

Because they will fuel you

As they confuse you

And consume every woman, every man
