Cruel light, golden dawn
Drew the line when you were born
And all that went before fails to make sense anymore
I see them cut and die, see the flowers bleed
I see the reason why but never the need
Can't you see
Your eyes filled with a strange desire
Can't you see we're playing with fire
I wish I'd never seen the world
Through eyes as clear as these
I wish I hadn't been the one to try and guarantee
A safe and easy way, as if I knew
A better place for me and you
Every breath you take dies inside of me
Like the past just blown away
Can't you see
A safe and easy way, I wish I knew
A better place for me and you
Can't you see
The wind blows and the flames grow higher
Can't you see we're playing with fire
Can't you see
Your eyes filled with a strange desire
Can't you see we're playing with fire
