Despised Icon - Matches To Paper Dolls lyrics
I changed the locks
 But your key, your key's still working
 Can't train a moth, I guess
 Each beast gets her burden
 So we circle this old flame
 Too much at stake
 But too late to change
 My nerves are shot
 My reserves are exhausted
 It's a tired plot, but we bought it
 Now we're lost
 Bewteen love and cholera
 Saccharine read... 
 Such a sentimental novel
 Give you cavities
 If it doesn't drive you to the bottle
 As for me, I'll take another kerosene, 
 If you've got it something harder
 Built like a moth you see
 I still get chills when you talk to me
 But the years pass by now
 In twos and threes
 These thrills ain't as cheap
 As they used to be
 If you're asking, I can't say no
 Just one more chapter, 
 Our book won't close
 And I know it's madness
 To play these odds
 It's like giving matches to paper, 
 To paper dolls
 I know it's madness, I know
 Despised Icon - Matches To Paper Dolls - http://motolyrics.com/despised-icon/matches-to-paper-dolls-lyrics.html
 Tried sweet talk, tried dynamite
 But I sleepwalk
 Back to the battle site
 Fight fire with fire
 But the fire won't fight
 We just fly these circles like tired kites
 You flash some fang
 And I bat my lashes
 And we're back again, 
 Ne end to this game with matches
 We've been lovers and strangers
 And friends who get angry
 Made mistakes and amends
 And brief moments of magic
 We forgive and forget
 And give into attraction
 This whole thing depends
 On amnesia and magnets
 I'd be leaving for good
 I'd be looking for better
 But I got this broken habit
 I keep gluing back together
 The fervor the fire the feathers
 The fever defies measure
 And good sense won't venture
 Where the moth won't let it
 If you're asking, I can't say no
 Just one more chapter, 
 Our book won't close
 And I know it's madness
 To play these odds
 It's like giving matches to paper, 
 To paper dolls
