the flame - carl lorusso jr. lyrics

[verse 1]
glory be, a good nights sleep
& rest to come with grace
but i’ve been struck by the absence of time
& haven’t slept in days
glory be, an ease to the thoughts
that keep drifting past her name
for as long as i care to remember
i could not stay away from the flame

[verse 2]
when i was a child, i sat on the counter
& put my mother in a screaming state
i picked up a knife, placed it on my finger
& admired the blade as it sank
i still have the scar, a pale white mark
the stitches like the tracks of a train
for as long as i care to remember
i could not stay away from the flame
[verse 3]
those lonesome nights when you can’t draw a line
in the sand to keep yourself straight
blessed the burn, of losing your turn
but it’s good to know your place
those lonesome nights, coked out of your mind
when your heart feels like a grenade
for as long as i care to remember
i could not stay away from the flame

[verse 4]
i might go out asleep at the wheel
in some twisted metal fate
i might go out in a hospital bed
with my soul drifting calmly away
i’ll probably go out with a gun in my hand
that i don’t know how to aim
for as long as i care to remember
i could not stay away from the flame
