you'd better run, you'd better run
'cause I am on your heels
I am a bullet in a gun
and it's aimed at you
a better man would let you live with what you did, but
you'd better run, you'd better run
'cause you won't let me heal

your hands in my hair, why would you say it felt so nice?
why would you always touch my face, my heart, my mind?
was there some glory promised if you took me in alive?
I would've trusted you with my entire life

but I'll set a fire on the floor of your house
I will burn you out
'cause what a cruel thing to make me think
it's not love if it's worship
so I'll burn you out
and oh what was your goal with this?
why did you want to make me feel at home?
I was dreaming days and nights for this
dreaming of a sunset kiss
why did you want to make me feel alone?

you'd better run, you'd better run
this isn't time to play
bored and tricky jester
I should've laughed you far away
now in the end you've lost me
did you know you had me from the start?
but you never needed me
or my lonely heart

your hands in my hair, why would you say it felt so nice?
why would you always touch my face, my heart, my mind?
was there some glory promised if you took me in alive?
I would've trusted you with my entire life

but I'll set a fire on the floor of your house
I will burn you out
'cause what a cruel thing to make me think
it's not love if it's worship
so I'll burn you out
I'll burn you out, oh I will burn you out

and they warned me
they said "he's playing you for laughs"
they warned me
they said "he doesn't want you back"
but I let myself give in harder than a spinal crack
and I know he's still laughing
but I'm not laughing back, oh
I'm not laughing back

but I'll set a fire on the floor of your house
I will burn you out
'cause what a cruel thing to make me think
it's not love if it's worship
so I'll burn you out
and oh what was your goal with this?
why did you want to make me feel at home?
I was dreaming days and nights for this
dreaming of a sunset kiss
why did you want to make me feel alone?
oh I'll set a fire on the floor of your house
I will burn you out
