Fire Lyrics

Slip me through your fingers
Like the cigarettes you rolled outside
Breathe me in and smoke me out
Paper can't wrap fire

We bit our tongues
Sucked our lips into our lungs
Two years, too long
Wish it didn't hurt this strong

I'm tired of your indifference
I'm bored of your existence
Guess you can't catch fire

Bathe in my restlessness
This madness got me down
Kiss me 'til I'm clean
You burn the best in me

We bit our tongues
Sucked our lips into our lungs
Two years too long
Wish it didn't hurt this strong

I'm tired of your indifference
I'm bored of your existence
Guess you can't catch fire

I'm tired of your indifference
I'm bored of your existence
Guess you can't catch fire

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
