Arsonist's Lullaby - Hozier

Arsonist's Lullaby Lyrics

When I was a child I'd sit for hours
Staring into open flames
Something in it had a power
I barely turned my eyes away
All you have is your fire
And the place you need to reach
Don't you ever tame your demons
Always keep them on a leash
When I was 16 my senses fooled me
I thought gasoline was on my clothes
I knew that something would always rule me
I knew the scent was mine alone
All you have is your fire
And the place you need to reach
Don't you ever tame your demons

Always keep them on a leash
When I was a man I thought it ended
When I knew love's perfect ache
But my pieces always depended
On all the asses in my way
All you have is your fire
And the place you need to reach
Don't you ever tame your demons
Always keep them on a leash
