matches

 

 

 

Burn me to the ground, she said.
Burn me to the ground.
I won’t make a sound, she said.
Burn me to the ground.

I will rise up from the ashes.
I will rock you to the core.
I will turn reality upside down.
I will make you ask for more.

Every time you wonder
where I’ve gone again,
I’ve only gone to fetch more matches…
Burn me down again.

So burn me to the ground, she said.
Burn me to the ground.
Careful you don’t catch on fire…
…burn me to the ground.

Lyrics, This Fire by Franz Ferdinand:

Eyes
Boring a way through me
Paralyze
Controlling completely
Now
There is a fire in me
Fire that burns
Fire that burns

This fire is out of control
I’m going to burn this city
Burn this city
If this fire is out of control
Then I
I’m out of control and I burn

Eyes
Burning a way to me
Overwhelm
Destroying so sweetly
Now
There is a fire in me
Fire that burns
Fire that burns

This fire…
