lyrics

I’m the firewater
You’re the only one for me
Swallow me and spit me out
But tell me not to leave
And I believe it
I believe it
And I believe it

Got up and left right when you needed me most
Tell me you crave me, then let me go
What could be worse than a lost love but the ghost

I could let you in and
I could let you out again
But if you let me in then
What can I do about it?
Say it’s over with
But you always come around
To down just a little bit more
Of me now

I’m the firewater
You’re the one who can’t decide
If one little kiss is worth the risk
Of ruining your night
And you say: that’s the way it goes
Oh, you say: that’s the way it goes

Stages that we place to retrace our
History again and again and again
Cycles and sights full of things we regret

I could let you in and
I could let you out again
But if you let me in then
What can I do about it?
Say it’s over with
But you always come around
To down just a little bit more
Of me now

I’m the firewater
You’re the only one for me
Swallow me and spit me out
But tell me not to leave
And I believe it
I believe it
And I believe it

(Got up and left right when you needed me most
Tell me you crave me, then let me go
What could be worse than a lost love but the ghost)

I’m the firewater
You’re the one who can’t decide
If one little kiss is worth the risk
Of ruining your night
And you say: that’s the way it goes
Oh, you say: that’s the way it goes

(Got up and left right when you needed me most
Tell me you crave me, then let me go
What could be worse than a lost love but the ghost / Stages that we place to retrace our
History again and again and again
Cycles and sights full of things we regret)

I’m the firewater
You’re the only one for me
(And I believe it)

Swallow me and spit me out
But tell me not to leave
(And I believe it)

I'm the firewater
You're the one who can't decide
(And I believe it)

If one little kiss is worth the risk of ruining your night

And I believe it
I believe it (x ∞)
