Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Asking you questions is like asking for lies
"Won't happen no more"
Yeah, I've heard that before
[Pre-Chorus]
Runnin' round in circles isn't my game
I tried to make it work, but I end up getting burnt
[Chorus]
By the fire
Leading on a life with a tear in my eye
And I know
Oh, I should've learned, but I guess it's my turn
To try to put out your fire
[Verse 2]
Giving you answers to my trivial heart
It's hard to break the chains that I can't pull apart
[Pre-Chorus]
Runnin' round in circles ain't nobody's game
I tried to make it work, but I keep up getting hurt
[Chorus]
By the fire
Leading on a life with a tear in my eye
And I know
Oh, I should've learned, but I guess it's my turn
To try to put out your fire
[Bridge]
Your flames
Oh, they're putting me out
The smoke
Can't see my way out
The heat, the heartaches, the fog, the blindness
The eyes, the cries, and shattered lies
[Chorus]
Tryna put out your fire
Leading on a life with a tear in my eye
And I know
Oh, I should've learned, but I guess it's my turn
To try to put out your fire
[Outro]
Oh, I should've learned, but I guess it's my turn
To try to put out your fire
Tryna put out your
Tryna put out your fire
