​slow burn.

[Intro]
"I remember that you like told me that you flip the first cigarette you touch over and I don't know why, but like, well, okay, so I know why. I missed you, so I started doing it."

[Verse]
Why couldn't I hold on? Now I'm left alone with no one
I pulled it, oh, so far, then it snapped and our love is gone
You saved me and in return, I sent you to Hell with a slow burn
Don't hate me, please don't turn
Into the people I've known for far too long
I think my hearts gone bad with the hate I've trapped
Don't remind of myself baby, I know that
I know you deserve what's better
I'll say I let you go but just know that I'll never
The door is always open for you
Until I die, I'll be waiting for you to come through
I never lied and I guess that's just why I hurt you
You're not by my side and I just wish that I could hold you
I'll try to move on but I know that I won't
I'll find a new one and try to heal what I broke
Could we have worked out? I guess that I'll never know
Not what I set out but another heart that I broke
Another innocent soul that I just taught to not trust
We built up a lot, I missed a screw, now it's all dust
Sorry about that, I never thought that
If I stopped for a minute you'd be gone when I come back

*auditory agony*
