Strike a match on the wall
hold it up to your flushing face
then let it fall

Come in a haze of blue smoke
and burrow right under my skin

swear I'll remember it all

Breathless oaths of love
and protests it's never enough
absorbed in the ceilings above

Strike your fist on the wall
and hold it up to your twisted face
then let it fall

Draw the blades that you stole
that burrow right under my skin
and lose control

Pushing back to the wall
a cry and a shout in the hall
I just want to forget it all

Breathless oaths of love
absorbed in the ceiling above
from where they could not be wrung
