Pyromaniacs on the event horizon

Pyromaniacs on the event horizon

I'd give you fire if you could use it
We could burn trouble for a while

Take you to the room full of secrets
Make love to you just for a smile

I've spent my life entirely naked
Wearing arms around my chest

Sending flares to the event horizon
Asking for a little help

Rescuers come in uniform
Blankets and trucks make a mess

Never waiting for the smoke to clear
Before they're off somewhere else

I'd give you a forrest you could burn it
Nature does worse in a storm

Compressing charcoal into diamonds
Some things are worth waiting for
