Dyin’ Flame lyrics
by Graham Barham
[Verse 1]
I'm drinkin' whiskey
You're sippin' reposado
You ain't here with me
But by the bottom of the bottle
It'll all go south, south, south
And what went comes around, round, round
[Pre-Chorus]
You ain't no angel
Nah, girl, I ain't no saint
We turn each other into something that we ain't
Swore you off like I always do
But somehow after midnight blue
[Chorus]
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
Goin' half insane, shootin' down all the warnings
Shadow dancing on the bedroom wall
'Till your silhouette crawls on out in the mornin'
You baby you, ain't nobody do it like
You baby you, that's the cold hard truth
We feel the heat, but it don't burn the same
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
[Verse 2]
You said you hated me, I said, "I know you do"
Yeah, it's the same damn conversation with the sober you
You lie to all your friends, say you ain't comin' through
This town would turn upside down if they only knew, me and you
[Chorus]
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
Goin' half insane, shootin' down all the warnings
Shadow dancing on the bedroom wall
'Till your silhouette crawls on out in the mornin'
You baby you, ain't nobody do it like
You baby you, that's the cold hard truth
We feel the heat, but it don't burn the same
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame (Dyin' flame)
Dyin' flame
[Pre-Chorus]
You ain't no angel
Nah, girl, I ain't no saint
We turn each other into something that we ain't
Swore you off like I always do
But somehow after midnight blue
[Chorus]
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
Goin' half insane, shootin' down all the warnings
Shadow dancing on the bedroom wall
'Till your silhouette crawls on out in the mornin'
You baby you, ain't nobody do it like
You baby you, that's the cold hard truth
We feel the heat, but it don't burn the same
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
Dyin' flame
