Commonwealth Avenue - Love, Robot

I am the fuel to your fire

Is what I thought as you bummed a cigarette

That night I was so damn tired

I swore that I might never love again

You tried to keep it together

But I knew you weren’t going to get much sleep

I kept my hands to myself

And reality became a bad dream

As I sat by the ocean

I wondered if I would ever speak again

Or if all of my answers

Would wash up on shore so I could rest

I am the fuel to your fire

But my love

You know I will burn you bad

Ignite all of your insides

Until the only thing left to do is hide

I read everything I wrote that night

And realized

Who I thought I was

Was just a lie

Was just a lie

I read everything I wrote that night

And realized

Who I thought I was

Was just a lie

Was just a lie

I am the fuel to your fire

All my veins run thick with gasoline

I wear a mask of desire

Make you believe

I am what you need

I am the antagonist

I am not who I may seem to be

You better stay away from me

'Cause you lit the match

And I’m starting to bleed

Breaking my back

I fall to my knees

I’ll cover my mouth

So you won’t hear me scream

I need you to know

I never meant to let go

The day that I loved was the day I lost my own

I am the bad taste left in your mouth

You know I tried to be better

But I didn’t know how

And I can be honest

I couldn’t promise

To be able to give you everything that you wanted

I am the bad taste left in your mouth

You know I tried to be better

But I didn’t know how

And I can be honest

I couldn’t promise

To be able to give you everything that you wanted

I am the bad taste left in your mouth

You know I tried to be better

But I didn’t know how

And I can be honest

I couldn’t promise

To be able to give you everything that you wanted

I am the bad taste left in your mouth

You know I tried to be better

But I didn’t know how

And I can be honest

I couldn’t promise

To be able to give you everything that you wanted
