Lyrics from Dawn:

Flame upon flame upon flame Reaching out to wrap around my reaching arm That's how life got to be among my friends

I wanted her so bad I waited 'round in a burning-down house Hoping for phone calls Totally scalded and scarred I woke up in a pile of ash

Grave beyond grave beyond grave Stretching out to horizons on all sides That's how life got to be among my friends Dead or alive I buried them all

I wanted her so bad As revenge for my burning I burned the whole world

*Note: stanzas/line breaks ambiguous And was warm for a little while

Lyric Correction

Sorry, the "*note" was supposed to be after "And was warm for a little while"
