[Verse 1]
You're cooking in the kitchen
Talking and she listens
She would never pace 'round the room
She's sitting, drinking coffee
Wants you like you want me
Think I see her clearer than you
[Pre-Chorus]
A life you won't learn to like, no
And nothing feels like a sacrifice
Oh, I, I see the way you hold her
You don't even know her ye-ye-yet
[Chorus]
I'm always gonna be a forest fire
Trying, but I can't keep you alive
No, I burn, I burn, ooh
I'll burn, I'll burn you
Love the way I keep you warm at night
Suffocating while I dim the light
Oh, I burn, I burn, ooh
I'll burn, I'll burn you
[Post-Chorus]
(Yeah) I burn, I burn, ooh
I'll burn, I'll burn you
[Verse 2]
Gripping onto me, no, you don't want this
Ask for honesty, I'll keep that promise, no
Matter what you say, it's crueler now to stay here
With the simmer low now
[Pre-Chorus]
Hard to watch you beg for
What you know is dead, oh
Clinging to our corpse, it's
Ashes on the floor, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm always gonna be a forest fire
Trying, but I can't keep you alive
No, I burn, I burn, ooh
I'll burn, I'll burn you
Love the way I keep you warm at night
Suffocating while I dim the light
Oh, I burn, I burn, ooh
I'll burn, I'll burn you
[Post-Chorus]
(Yeah) I burn, I burn, ooh
I'll burn, I'll burn you
(Yeah) I burn, I burn, ooh
I'll burn, I'll burn you
[Outro]
Always gonna be a forest fire
Always gonna be a forest fire
Always gonna be a forest fire
Always gonna be— always gonna be—
