The Flame - London

Ooh, I didn't know what I was about to trade All I know is where I saw a way You saw the worst in me Ooh, I didn't know where we were heading to All I know is where I saw a truth You saw an enemy Wait, friend of mine Don't run away I grow numb with time But I'm still awake enough To care for both of us Ooh, I didn't know who I was working for Though I recall they always wanted more They got the best of me Wait, friend of mine Stay for a while I'm sure by now You've realized I'm not the same Neither are you We watched the flame Between us turn blue Is there enough to keep us trying?

We all drown In empathy and sorrow Searching for A brand new tomorrow I see the light Beyond your gallows Repent now Gothic based hallows Touch the flame Be my blame Close your eyes And I'll do the same Hold my breath Be your mess Together we can Overcome death Medicate The heart ache Our mistakes Made this serenade Picked apart Topics of old Just restart Words laced in gold Dopamine A lack there of To be seen Take flight my dove Cut my hand Let the crimson pour Slice my palm Shivers at my core Be the light Beyond your gallows Repent now Gothic based hallows Touch the flame Be my blame Close your eyes And I'll do the same Hold my breath Be your mess Together we can Overcome death Medicate The heart ache Our mistakes Made this serenade Light a candle And attract the moths Grab the handle And be my rock Light a candle And attract the moths Grab the handle And be my rock Locked away in a tower for two A cathedral lost in power for you Why do they hate All we do Why do we care We'll leave soon Touch the flame Be my blame Close your eyes And I'll do the same Hold my breath Be your mess Together we can Overcome death Medicate The heart ache Our mistakes Made this serenade

There's a warning in the comfort That you're too good to be true They tell me over and over There's someone better for you You're the warmth I feel beside me And the fear of growing cold The continual reminder Of the risk we take when we get involved I've been warned enough You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise At the pace that we've been running When our lungs begin to sting I'm hearing over and over "Moderation in all things" So you'll hopefully forgive me If I cannot slow this down When my body bends to weakness Your voice will be the sound That conceals the pain You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise Love is one-way street Headed away from me Love is a one-way street Headed away from me Away from me You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise Love is one-way street Headed away from me Love is a one-way street Headed away from me

We live in the doorway I fell in love and there was nothing there to save me from I fell alone into I fell alone into You You In our tracks Come on in and rest We live in the doorway I fell in love and there was nothing there to save me from I fell alone into I fell alone into You You Can you hear your thoughts? Do you fear the worst? Tell me what I am not What I am not I am not Don't tell me that I cannot That I cannot I cannot And I will not Live in the doorway I fell in love and there was no one there to save me from I fell alone into I fell alone into You You Life in the doorway Colors us the wrong way You won't lose But you will never win Life in the doorway Colors us the wrong way I would rather try I would rather try I would rather try

The kiss sweetest And touch so warm One smile kindest In this world so cold and strong We're so close to the flame Burning brightly It won't fade away Leave us lonely The arms safest And words so good The faith deepest, yeah In this world so cold and cruel We're so close to the flame Burning brightly It won't fade away Leave us lonely So close to the flame Burning brightly Won't fade away Leave us lonely Close to the flame Burning brightly Won't fade away Leave us lonely
