[00:14.86] I've got a book of matches

[00:17.68] I've got a can of kerosene

[00:20.80] I've got some bad ideas involving you and me

[00:25.02] I don't blame you for walking away

[00:28.38] I touched myself had thoughts of flames

[00:30.90] I shat the bed and laid there in it

[00:34.30] Thinking of you wide awake for days

[00:41.62] Wide awake for days

[00:49.54] And I found you tongue-tied in my twisted little brain

[00:55.20] You couldn't crack a smile

[00:57.74] I didn't catch your name

[00:59.72] I don't blame you for walking away

[01:02.83] I'd do the same if I saw me

[01:05.37] I swear it's not contagious

[01:07.91] In four short steps we can erase this

[01:11.30] Step one -- slit my throat

[01:14.13] Step two -- play in my blood

[01:16.96] Step three -- cover me in dirty sheets and run laughing out of the house

[01:22.61] Step four -- stop off at Edgebrook Creek and rinse your crimson hands

[01:29.11] You took me hostage and made your demands

[01:31.94] I couldn't meet them so you cut off my fingers, one by one

[01:48.62] I'm like a broken record

[01:51.16] I've got a needle scratching me

[01:54.27] It injects the poison of alcohol I.V.

[01:58.51] I don't blame you for walking away

[02:01.62] I'd do the same if I saw me

[02:04.45] I swear it's not contagious

[02:06.99] I swear to God it's not contagious

[02:10.06] Step one -- slit my throat

[02:12.88] Step two -- play in my blood

[02:15.99] Step three -- cover me in dirty sheets and run laughing out of the house

[02:21.60] Step four -- stop at Lake Michigan and rinse your crimson hands

[02:27.82] You took me hostage and made your demands

[02:30.92] I couldn't meet them so you cut off my fingers, one by one

[02:41.07] This could be love - love for fire

[02:47.01] This could be love - love for fire

[02:52.66] This could be love - love for fire

[02:54.78] This could be love for fire forevermore

[02:58.03] Step one -- slit my throat

[03:00.57] Step two -- play in my blood

[03:03.68] Step three -- cover me in dirty sheets and run laughing out of the house

[03:09.33] Step four -- stop at Berkeley Marina and rinse your crimson hands

[03:15.55] You took me hostage and made your demands

[03:18.38] I couldn't meet them so you cut off my fingers, one by one

[03:26.86] One by one
