lyrics

I found a sound inside the deep
Darkness called out to me
And the deeper that I went
The more of you I found

I found questions inside of answers
Questions no one would answer
The things I thought I knew
It all fell to the ground

My mouth burning like a coal
My mouth burning like a coal
My mouth burning like a coal
My mouth burning like a coal

Don't want to be a wildfire
(And watch the world burn)
I'd rather be a flamethrower
(Influence the way it turns)

I picked up what I found
Can’t stop now, it’s a part of me now.
Will I detonate and go
Evaporate into a wisp of smoke

Did my heart burn too
Lose my life if I kissed you
Don’t ever let me go
Evaporate into a wisp of smoke

I think I’m gonna burn out
I think I’m gonna burn out
I think I’m gonna burn out
Don’t let me burn out

Don't want to be a wildfire
(And watch the world burn)
I'd rather be a flamethrower
(Influence the way it turns)

I think I’m gonna burn out
I think I’m gonna burn out
I think I’m gonna burn out
Don’t let me burn out

My mouth burning like a coal
My mouth burning like a coal
My mouth burning like a coal
My mouth burning like a coal

I am gonna set myself on fire
Let the world watch me burn
I am gonna set myself on fire
Let the world watch me burn

Don't want to be a wildfire
(And watch the world burn)
I'd rather be a flamethrower
(Influence the way it turns)
