It's four a.m., i'm drunk and alone
Trying to call you on a public phone.
I wanted passion, i wanted desire.
My heart is a flame that pains me
If i do not light it on fire.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/cowboy+mouth/light+it+on+fire_20235061.html ]
You're out doing what i wanted you to
I'm the perfect picture of a perfect fool.
My heart is a flame that pains me
I'm in the heartbreak hotel and there's a desk clerk for hire.
If i do not light it on fire.
Just how it feels.
How can i tell you

How do you make love stay
And how do you know if what's staying is real.
I was the one full of whiskey and talk.

My heart is a flame that pains me
You say the truth hurts, yeah well, so does a liar.
I was the one with the skip in his walk.
If i do not light it on fire.
