Karma Made Me an Arsonist

So light a match and drop it fast
And run like hell and don't look back
So light a match and drop it fast
And run like hell and don't look back

Maybe this fire is just what I need
Maybe the ashes are all that I'll ever be
But until then I'll keep on burning
To be put in place, to be stood up to
Every selfish word shoved down your throat
We'll just keep on, just keep on

We're just starting a fire
Be careful of the lives we'll burn
We're just starting a fire
Be careful of the lives we'll burn

Well, I'm self-destructive at heart
I won't stop until I tear myself apart
We can fight this
And we're self-destructive at heart
We won't stop until we tear each apart
I won't leave for the sake of you

All we are are stupid kids
Passing the time with dynamite and lipstick
And you want me to be something I could never be
You can't keep me on a leash
Any more than you can keep the sun from burning

Oh baby, if you could see me now
You might not like what I've become
Oh but there's no stopping now
I'm swimming in quicksand and falling in love
With the idea of going completely insane
This is what I've become and you can't make me change

This is the last time
To feel alive
To feel something real
This is my life
I felt something real

Don't you dare beg for mercy
I will not hear you now
Don't make a sound
It ain't a party 'til you can't feel a thing
When all the monsters come out of hiding
We dance to forget and I can't remember anything at all

All we are are stupid kids
Passing the time with dynamite and lipstick
And you want me to be something I could never be
You can't keep me on a leash
Any more than you can keep the sun from burning

So get off of my back
You'll never make me feel regret
This is who I am and there's no looking back
This is who I am and there's no looking back
So all aboard, all aboard
This train is running off the tracks
And there's no looking back
And there's no looking back
And there's no looking back
