The Thing - Ready to Burn Lyrics

It was late
I was just about to call you
But I'm fighting all my feelings
I'm a shadow of myself
Hope you've changed
You talk about your intuitions
All their accents and ambitions
But it's always the same

If I walk away
Fade into the flames
You can turn it off
But the gas don't light a flame and it's you
With smoke in the way
There's nothing to say
You can turn it off
But I'm ready to burn

Messed up, my guards down.
I carved my heart out
And now you never call
Was it something I said?
You're only honest to burn me down
You're dying to call me out
You're calling me out

If I walk away
Fade into the flames
You can turn it off
But the gas don't light a flame it's you
With smoke in the way
There's nothing to say
You can turn it off
But I'm ready to burn

I would always get so hurt
I'm starting to learn
I'm starting to learn
That every time it feels so good
I'm ready to burn
I'm ready to burn

If I walk away
Fade into the flames
You can turn it off
