Lyrics She's Kerosene - The Interrupters

I'm a match, she's kerosene
You know she's gonna burn down everything
She's an arsonist in her pastime
And I've been burned for the last time
Time, time, time, whoa
I've been burned for the last time
Time, time, time, whoa
I've been burned for the last time

It started out like any other mornin'
The sky was red, he took it as a warnin'
She kicked the hive now the bees are swarmin'
Then played the victim 'til the crowd starts formin'
She's got a history of making a scene, yeah
She's tellin' stories, she's gaslightin' like
He's the executioner and she is the queen
And he's the one whose neck is in the guillotine, and he said

I'm a match, she's kerosene
You know she's gonna burn down everything
She's an arsonist in her pastime
And I've been burned for the last time
Time, time, time, whoa
I've been burned for the last time
Time, time, time, whoa
I've been burned for the last time

The smoke clears out and he's been awakened
He said this life could be mine for the takin'
She needs a drink so she starts shakin'
And played the victim 'til his heart starts breakin'
No real tears 'cause she don't mean it
This landscape used to be so scenic
And he could make it out if he could dream it
Risin' up from the ash, he's a phoenix

I'm a match, she's kerosene
You know she's gonna burn down everything
She's an arsonist in her pastime
And I've been burned for the last time
Time, time, time, whoa
I've been burned for the last time
Time, time, time, whoa
I've been burned for the last time

You play with me, you're playin' with fire
You play with me, you're playin' with fire

I'm a match, she's kerosene
You know she's gonna burn down everything
She's an arsonist in her pastime
And I've been burned for the last time
Time, time, time, whoa
I've been burned for the last time
Time, time, time, whoa
I've been burned for the last time
