"I will hold a candle up to you to singe your skin"
He's playing on the phrase about holding a candle up to someone which means something like having a great admiration for someone. But instead of this, he carries on with 'to singe your skin' so he's not complimenting her like you might first think, as he actually wants to hurt her.
I relate to this song so much right now! grrr. stupid boys.
I relate the reference to "candle" to a small flame (a friend of mine always used to ask if I "still held a candle" for a certin someone; like the remnants/kindling of a flame/passion) so his fondness of her is what will be damaging; his desire for her is set to be thing that is going to be destructive to her.
