Moth Into Flame Lyrics
Blacked out
Pop queen, amphetamine
The screams crashed into silence
Tapped out
Doused in the gasoline
The high times going timeless
Decadence
Death of the innocence
The pathway starts to spiral
Infamy
All for publicity
Destruction going viral
Light it up
Ah, light it up
Another hit erases all the pain
Bulletproof
Ah, kill the truth
You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high
High again
Sold your soul
Built a higher wall
Yesterday
Now you’re thrown away
Same rise and fall
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A moth into the flame
Twisted
Backstabbing wicked
The delusion absolution
Perjurer
Fame is the murderer
Seduce you into ruin
Light it up
Ah, light it up
Another hit erases all the pain
Bulletproof
Ah, tell the truth
You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high
High again
Sold your soul
Built the higher wall
Yesterday
Now you’re thrown away
Same rise and fall
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A moth into the flame
Burn
Guarantee your name, you go and kill yourself
The vultures feast around you still
Overdose on shame and insecurity
If one won’t do that fistful will
Death scene
Black hearse the limousine
A grave filled with seduction
Vaccine
Fame does the murdering
She builds up for destruction
So light it up
Ah, light it up
Another hit erases all the pain
Bulletproof
Ah, no excuse
You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high
High again
Sold your soul
Built the higher wall
Yesterday
Now you’re thrown away
Same rise and fall
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A moth into the flame
Addicted to the
Fame
Pop queen, amphetamine
The screams crashed into silence
Doused in the gasoline
The high times going timeless
Death of the innocence
The pathway starts to spiral
All for publicity
Destruction going viral
Ah, light it up
Another hit erases all the pain
Bulletproof
Ah, kill the truth
You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high
High again
Built a higher wall
Yesterday
Now you’re thrown away
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A moth into the flame
Backstabbing wicked
The delusion absolution
Fame is the murderer
Seduce you into ruin
Ah, light it up
Another hit erases all the pain
Bulletproof
Ah, tell the truth
You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high
High again
Built the higher wall
Yesterday
Now you’re thrown away
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A moth into the flame
Burn
The vultures feast around you still
Overdose on shame and insecurity
If one won’t do that fistful will
Black hearse the limousine
A grave filled with seduction
Fame does the murdering
She builds up for destruction
Ah, light it up
Another hit erases all the pain
Bulletproof
Ah, no excuse
You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high
High again
Built the higher wall
Yesterday
Now you’re thrown away
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A moth into the flame

Fame is desctrucive, but like a drug: even though you're hurting yourself you keep going back to what's killing you.
Fame is a drug but i think this one is aimed for Miley Cyrus, cause its very much cover her.
@smting This one is all Amy Winehouse
@smting This one is all Amy Winehouse
It's about meth. You can hear it in the lyrics. The band was all on meth, and we all know their direction, was not good from 1996 to Hardwired where they got back in the game, but the reason they got bad is because they all got clean. The song is just a reflecting of their past.
It's about Amy Winehouse, James told it on an interview and I think it's pretty literal.
