Lyrics:

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
