Arsonist

Halsey Halsey

Arsonist burning down the world to feel it's heat
The arsonist doesn't feel the embers on his feet
Arsonist, your humans starter kit came incomplete
My apologies, arsonist, you loved me

I'm going to build us on fire
Handcuffed to a narcissistic liar
Empty space and lethargy
Eyes are blazed with apathy
Fool me twice, the shame is on me
Am I a victim in your game?
Am I a subtle antique placed?
Will you pass me through your bloodline with your ornamental rage?
Can I take a plane for everything you hate?
The punishment and crime are not the same

Arsonist burning down the world to feel its heat
The arsonist doesn't feel the embers on his feet
Arsonist, your humans' starter kit came incomplete
My apologies, arsonist, you loved me

You built a small container to keep on me confined
I am water, I am shapeless, I am fluid, I am divine
Somebody will love me for the way that I'm designed
Not the station, creation, intertwined
You don't love the flames, you just want them for yourself
That's my hell and kerosene arising in the hell
You smothered out the glow I grew for you, but it was mine too

Arsonist burning down the world to feel its heat
The arsonist doesn't feel the embers on his feet
Arsonist, your humans' starter kit came incomplete
My apologies, arsonist, you loved me

How come it's not love? It's playing God and there's dependence for
Entering the temple like a fog in your charade
You leave me sleeping in the dark so you can hide away your blade
And lock the door and trap me right here in the blaze

Arsonist burning down the world to feel its heat
The arsonist doesn't feel the embers on his feet
Arsonist, your humans' starter kit came incomplete
My apologies, arsonist, you loved me

Have you ever broken and thrown down?
Have you ever worried that you'd be burned off in a sack?
Have you ever given the world to somebody as a gift and had it returned?
Did you know the father's DNA stays inside the mother for seven years?
Ever waited seven years?
Ever wake up from a dream just to realize that you're still asleep?
Do you ever wish you were still asleep?
Do you ever wish you wouldn't wake up?
