[Verse]
Smoke in the air hollow lungs can't breathe
Ashes in my hands no room to grieve
Steps on the coals every time I try
Playing with the fire no asking why
[Chorus]
Flames rise high tearing through the night
Shadows from the blaze caught in the fight
Burn it down burn it down stakes higher
Living on the edge playing with the fire
[Verse 2]
Hot tongues licking at my skin again
No water to douse just the bitter end
Risk ain't a choice when you're born to ignite
Playing with the fire living without light
[Bridge]
Every spark a sin every ember a cry
Destruction my companion blaze in my eye
Torn between the thrill and the shattered wire
Can't let it go just playing with the fire
[Chorus]
Flames rise high tearing through the night
Shadows from the blaze caught in the fight
Burn it down burn it down stakes higher
Living on the edge playing with the fire
[Verse 3]
No salvation in the heat no savior arrives
Smoke and mirrors where the truth collides
Caught in the furnace craving the choir
Just a voice screaming playing with the fire
