if you took my advice, you'd already be dead

you guard your laughter

just like the president and

your weeks are numbered

just like an element and

it's not so much what you say

it's mostly how you're saying it

you make me melt like kerosene on candle wax

in flames and on your porch

she's knocking on your door

and she won't leave until your ash is on the floor

and all your pictures couldn't keep me warm

if i burned them i'm bleeding bloody coughs

from the fire in my lungs i left you in my memories

so if the train comes lay down on the tracks

and forget me and how we used to kiss

i can't stand the person that you've grown to be

you guard your laughter

just like the president and

your weeks are numbered

just like an element and

it's not so much what you say

it's mostly how you're saying it

you make me melt like kerosene on candle wax

in flames and on your porch

she's knocking on your door

and she won't leave until your ash is on the floor

and all your pictures couldn't keep me warm

if i burned them i'm bleeding bloody coughs

from the fire in my lungs i left you in my memories

so if the train comes lay down on the tracks

and forget me and how we used to kiss

i can't stand the person that you've grown to be

so this is me
