Never did hear what you say I don't need it anyway Never could see what you saw They wouldn't suspect love at all Now i'm on fire and you're on your way Like human candles lit to burn away Midnight rises and here we are You scratch at my soul But i'm so far gone Chorus: I don't want no one I don't need no one I take no lovers in my bad I don't want no one I don't need no one The flames of fire burn down to the end You may cry and you may beg Spit on the flame that's in my head You may curse me i don't care I'll show you paradise i swear Now i'm burning the cold you embrace We always take more than we gave Like seas that eat their pieces of eight Open, swallow, lock you away I am exploding I am consumed By the fire that i feel for you Like a ghost without fame or fortune To love and to hold To cherish to torture
