lyrics

Wind you up and watch you go
you tell me what you think you know
there is a place in Hell that’s mine
I thank your god you’ve lost your mind

while I bathe in fire
you’re the one left on your knees
so tell me who’s the liar
when we all do as we please

I was just a child
when they taught me I would burn
whispering it was love
but that wasn’t what I learned

wind me up and watch me go
I’ve left the earth to join the show
I heard there was a place for me
that wouldn’t tell me who to be

and just like that
I was free
I was free
I was free

while I dance in fire
you’re the one left on your knees
so tell me who’s the liar
when we all do as we please

I was just a child
when they taught me I would burn
whispering it was love
but that wasn’t what I learned

where is the love
is this love
where is the love I was promised
I was promised

this isn’t love
this is control
if all of us must pay a toll
how is it love
how is it love

while I bathe in fire
you’re the one left on your knees
so tell me who’s the liar
when we all do as we please

I was just a child
when they taught me I would burn
whispering it was love
but that wasn’t what I learned
