She Set Fire to the House

I pushed the button
Somebody opened the door
Her name was Monica
And Monica was mine evermore
She said I can't be held responsible
For all the guilt in this world
Seven years is enough for any boy or girl
She set fire to the house
And watched it burn down to the ground
Her house was in darkness
Monica made me insist
You wanna stay, its alright
But its at your own risk
Keep your mouth shut
And keep it bottled up inside your head
Love is disappeared all hope is dead
She set fire to the house
Watched it burn down to the ground
She set fire to the house
Watched it burn down to the ground
Pretty flames illuminated the night
Monica's face was snowy white
If she was ever unfaithful to me
Well I didn't notice, especially
There are murders, there are murders
And they happen every single day
We break our promises we find it hard to break away
Oh Monica she left first
And in that cold, clear dawn light
An empty can of kerosene had that
House of love burned down so bright
She set fire to the house
Watched it burn down to the ground
She set fire to the house
Watched it burn down to the ground
She set fire to the house
Watched it burn down to the ground
