Arsonist's Lullabye

Lyrics

When I was a child
 I heard voices
 Some would sing and
 Some would scream
 ♪
 You soon find you have few choices
 I learned the voices died with me
 
 When I was a child I'd sit for hours
 Staring into open flame
 
 Something in it had a power
 Could barely tear my eyes away
 All you have is your fire
 And the place you need to reach
 ♪
 Don't you ever
 Tame your demon
 But always keep 'em on a leash
 ♪
 When I was 16 my senses fooled me
 Thought gasoline was on my clothes
 
 I knew that something
 Would always rule me
 I knew the scent was mine alone
 ♪
 All you have is your fire
 And the place you need to reach
 ♪
 Don't you ever
 Tame your demon
 But always keep 'em on a leash
 
 When I was a man I thought it ended
 When I knew loves perfect ache
 But my peace has always depended
 On all the ashes in my way
 All you have is your fire
 And the place you need to reach
 ♪
 Don't you ever
 Tame your demons
 But always keep 'em on a leash
