Gasoline

I shouldn't want you as much as I do
But there's something about you I don't wanna lose
And the chances we'd meet, catch a bullet in my teeth, so thin
If there's a chance we could be something more than you and me, I'm in

But I don't want to rush just to end in a crash
Love is a drug, or it's a myth of the past
We could fall into lust, and God, I wish it would last, but as for me
I'm a man of my heart; You're the girl of my dreams
Playing the part of the girl down the street
If you're afraid of the spark, then why did you bring gasoline?

I can't love you even if I tried
Skeletons in my closet keep me up at night
And maybe I'm cursed I don't want you to get hurt
Your blood on my hands
If the chance is a risk, is this a crime you'd commit if I let you in?

But I don't want to rush just to end in a crash
Love is a drug when you're falling too fast
You're tempting to trust when you say "we would last", but as for me
I've been falling apart piece by piece
I've been playing the part of the girl down the street
If I'm afraid of the dark then you can't blame me for the gasoline

Just give me the word, even if it hurts, I need to know
Can't promise me anything, then I'll just go
Just understand that gasoline burns what it can
It wasn't in the plan for this to end up in our hands

I don't want to rush just to end in a crash
I thought it was love until it burned into ash
All this talk about us made me think we would last, but as for me
I'm a man of my heart
I'm the girl in your dreams
Playing the part of the girl down the street
Set a flame to my heart, but you can't burn me with gasoline
