Flashover

We've been locked inside a house fire
The floor boards under our feet are burning on the edge of desire
It's gettin' pretty hard to breathe
And I can smell the smoke in the air
It's been seeping up through the cracks
For days now and I don't care, and with one strike of this match
We can send all that we've had here up in flames

You can only bear the heat for so damn long and ignore everything that's wrong
I got in too deep and I didn't wanna see the caution tape on the door
The only way out was to burn my way out
Baby, can't you see
I didn't mean to hurt you and I know you don't deserve it
We both burn as the floor creaks
We're caught inside a flashover
Caught inside a flashover

I swore that we were fireproof, no need for a fire escape
The only thing thicker than the walls in this room is the tension that's about to break us
I can pick up the phone and call 911 but we're past the point of quenching this blaze

You can only bear the heat for so damn long and ignore everything that's wrong
I got in too deep and I didn't wanna see the caution tape on the door
The only way out was to burn my way out
Baby, can't you see
I didn't mean to hurt you and I know you don't deserve it
We both burn as the floor creaks
We're caught inside a flashover
Caught inside a flashover

Caught inside a flashover
Caught inside a flashover
