Mirror To The Fire

Mirror To The Fire - Yumi Zouma

You're alone

But I know you're just waiting on a song

Where I wore myself out on you

I'm feeling like you're leaving

You say that you need breathing now

And I'm trying to forget you

Had me coiled up in your palm like a thread

Before you told me

All the dangerous thoughts in your head

And now I think so many times

Of the words to be said

And you tell me

I've chosen enough

I should forget about you

And I'm trying to hide it

That you're my desire and I was yours

They won't hear a heartbeat

I walked too fast through your door

Every time that I love

It comes right from the gut

But you say that I'm stuck to your past

But I react so dumb and trifling

A mirror to the fire inside of me

You're chasing hands

Is the darkness breaking all your plans

Is the blame inconsequential

I'm hoping that you'll catch me

Or text me when you're heading out

I'm ashamed of our intent you

Had me coiled up like a dog in your bed

Before I realized my time had run out

And you'd left

And now I think so many times

Of the words to be said

And you tell me I've chosen enough

Or I'll forget about you

And I'm trying to hide it

That you're my desire and I was yours

They won't hear a heartbeat

I walked too fast through your door

Every time that I love

It comes right from the gut

But you say that I'm stuck to your past

And I react so dumb and trifling

A mirror to the fire inside of me

Every time that I love

It comes right from the gut

But you say that I'm stuck to your past

But I react so dumb and trifling

A mirror to the fire inside of me
