Flash Burn by Twin Rains Lyrics
If I told you I loved you I could have lost time
Would have held up my tongue, diverted my mind
A new plot in my skin, and an old body left behind
Lost chance at some punchline I'd been trying to find
You were looking at me, but I had my eyes on the road
Had you tagged as some bomb, give you any time you'd explode
You'd be the death of me, baby, I could see it unfold
Your name tattooed on my shoulder, face a hole in my wall
I can see your mouth now
You're in a brightly lit train station
I can't take you back
No, I can't stop the ticking
Can't get off the tracks
Can't get off the tracks
Watched you speak to the country about getting out of this town
Then you went to a room, drew the curtains around
Were you ready for me, baby, another threat from the ground?
It's so much easier climbing than it is coming down
Can't get off the tracks...
Would have held up my tongue, diverted my mind
A new plot in my skin, and an old body left behind
Lost chance at some punchline I'd been trying to find
You were looking at me, but I had my eyes on the road
Had you tagged as some bomb, give you any time you'd explode
You'd be the death of me, baby, I could see it unfold
Your name tattooed on my shoulder, face a hole in my wall
I can see your mouth now
You're in a brightly lit train station
I can't take you back
No, I can't stop the ticking
Can't get off the tracks
Can't get off the tracks
Watched you speak to the country about getting out of this town
Then you went to a room, drew the curtains around
Were you ready for me, baby, another threat from the ground?
It's so much easier climbing than it is coming down
Can't get off the tracks...
