Go ahead and drench the sheets in something sweet and flammable
We've turned into a species that is no longer manageable
I'm resting my head on a pillow made of kerosene
The most beautiful disaster that I've ever fucking seen
Strike a match and watch the shadows dance across the wall
I'm waiting for the heat to finally take it all
Don't you try to save me, don't you try to pray
We were born to burn in this exquisite way
It's a gasoline lullaby, sing me to the end
Close your eyes and let the fire be our only friend
Taste the smoke and feel the fever rising in the dark
Everything we are is just a waiting for a spark
The fumes are getting heavy but the sleep is coming fast
We knew this kind of holy was never gonna last
You're holding the lighter like a silver-plated cross
Counting up the gain while I'm drowning in the loss
Strike a match and watch the shadows dance across the wall
I'm waiting for the heat to finally take it all
Don't you try to save me, don't you try to pray
We were born to burn in this exquisite way
It's a gasoline lullaby, sing me to the end
Close your eyes and let the fire be our only friend
Taste the smoke and feel the fever rising in the dark
Everything we are is just a waiting for a spark
Burn the bed and burn the floor and burn the goddamn roof
I don't need your mercy and I don't need your proof
We're dancing in the embers of a life we couldn't keep
A gasoline lullaby to put the ghosts to sleep
Let it burn
I want to see the sky turn black as your heart
I want to see the finish since we ruined the start
There's no water here, only more fuel to pour
Give me the heat until I can't feel anymore
Fuck the consequence
Fuck the regret
The best goddamn sleep that I haven't had yet
Light it up
It's a gasoline lullaby, sing me to the end
Close your eyes and let the fire be our only friend
Taste the smoke and feel the fever rising in the dark
Everything we are is just a waiting for a spark
Burn the bed and burn the floor and burn the goddamn roof
I don't need your mercy and I don't need your proof
We're dancing in the embers of a life we couldn't keep
A gasoline lullaby to put the ghosts to sleep
(Sleep tight)
Sleep tight
