She's moving like a forest fire 
Leaving no path unscathed 
Too young to be as jaded as I am 
But old enough to feel the strain 
I hope that I can hold on to 
The beauty that I'll never match 
That never-ending open wound 
That started from a simple scratch 

I want to save us from being saved 
Before we get too old and waste away 
Like some lovers destined to die young 

And so through all the loss we've seen 
Of friends who sit and think too much 
Too fragile for the cold outside 
Too proud to say what's on their minds 
This is for the broken fools 
Whose flames are gone before their time 
And if you see me trip and fall 
Save me from a swift decline 

I want to sink beneath a drunken sea 
Look into your eyes when you take the breath from me 
There's always something to live for
