Flame Lyrics - Singles - Crustation

Bruised she feels, insecure and jilted 

Like a thief he tried to steel her soul 

Slyer than his easy smile 

He tried to use her for a while 

Underneath she's empty as a whole 

Oh, flame's still burning 

She's not learning 

Can't keep turning 

Back discarded memories 

Dusty thoughts start to tease her 

Loaded with ammunition 

Coded by her ambition 

He fires a sweet talk into defenseless 

She shot and numb with poison words 

She struggles uselessly 

Unhurt a slave to his cruel captivity 

Oh, flame's still burning 

She's not learning 

Can't keep turning 

Back discarded memories 

Dusty thoughts 

Start to tease her 

It's all a game for him to play 

He trank a deep 

And threw her away 

Deluding her 

No illusion is numb 

Cynicism neared his head 

And left his appetite unfed 

Alone all his brilliant words 

Are dead 

Oh, flame's still burning 

She's not learning 

Can't keep turning 

Back discarded memories 

Dusty thoughts 

Start to tease her 

He turned her world to black 

But she's stopped looking back 

Tattooed it all in black 

Discretion is the key to his reality 

And she feels now she's free 

So she chooses then and there 

To leave without a care 

She goes into the dusk 

As easy as a breeze 

No longer on her knees 

Her soul is now at peace
