A heart of stone, a smoking gun I can give you life, I can take it away
 * Lyrics: **

A heart of stone, a smoking gun I'm working it out Why'd you feel so underrated? Why'd you feel so negated?

Turning away from the light Becoming adult Turning into my soul I wanted to bite not destroy To feel her underneath Turning into the light

She don't think straight No, No, No, She don't think straight She's got such a dirty mind and it never ever stops And you don't taste like her and you never ever will And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled

Turning away from the light Becoming adult Turning into my soul I wanted to bite not destroy To feel her underneath Turning into the light

And if you feel (and if you feel) A little left behind (a little left behind) We will wear you on the other side

And if you feel (and if you feel) A little left behind (a little left behind) We will wear you on the other side

'Cause I'm on fire 'Cause I'm on fire when you come 'Cause I'm on fire 'Cause I'm on fire so stub me out

'Cause I'm on fire 'Cause I'm on fire 'Cause I'm on fire 'Cause I'm on fire
