lyrics

Chained my heart to another
And refused to heed my brother
When he warned me leaving you would bring pain

You were always there for me
Held my hand so tenderly
Now I'm burning in the grip of this flame

So tell me
Will you take this apology?
The devil went out back
Carved our initials in a tree
Please don't let this be the end of me
Tied myself to the devil
Please come back and set me free

Full of fire
But no passion
And in classic sinner fashion
My wings fan the flames when I try to fly

I crave your tranquility
Rescue me from misery
I'm sorry that I hurt you
That I ever made you cry

(chorus)

Wrap me in your arms
Carry me home
I cannot find the way
Streetlights flicker
Over this forsaken road
I wander astray

Can't hold hands with the shadows behind
So I'm reaching out to you
Show me your face
Be my saving grace

Before we move too fast
We should confront the past
If I'm remembering correctly
When you saw me last
I was a hedonistic heathen breathin' out what I once believed in
Sleeping as you lied beside me and cried

Betrayed you with my kisses
Lip shtick
Don't wanna be a monster's missus
I'm sick
Of fleeing this beating
I'm pleadin' and entreatin' you believe that I'm sorry for being a fool.

(chorus x2)
