just wanted to see it glow
and he screamed
put it out
and I did

how could I have hurt you
if I was so far away?
Distance won't change
the fact that the danger is there

you're playing with fire
and maybe you know
I don't have to tell you
why it's so dangerous
you're playing with fire
and maybe you see it
I don't have to yell
but I do anyway

I know things, people
you thought were well hidden
and I'll bring them down
strike them down
burn them down

just wanted to see it glow
I'm a pyro, didn't you know
and he screamed
put it out
put it out
and I did

how could I have burnt you
if I was gone today?
Admittance won't change
the fact that the anger was there.

you're playing with fire
and maybe you know
I don't have to tell you
why it's so dangerous
you're playing with fire
and maybe you see it
I don't have to yell
but I do anyway

and I hate it when you do this
and I hate it when you make this
seem like such a crime
and I hate it when you know this
and I hate it when you make me
feel so dead inside

I hate it when I see you like this
I hate it when I can't do a thing
I hate it when wishes are void
I hate it when promises are empty
I hate it when prayers are unanswered

you're playing with fire
and maybe you know
I don't have to tell you
but I do it anyway
