Lyrics

[Verse 1] Bruised she feels Insecure and jilted Like a thief, he tried to steal her soul Slyer than his easy smile He tried to use her for a while Underneath she's empty as a hole [Chorus] Ohhh Flame's still burning, she's not learning Can't keep turning back Discarded memories, dusty thoughts Start to tease her [Verse 2] Loaded with ammunition Goaded by her ambition He fires a sweet talk into defenseless she Shot and numbed with poison words She struggles uselessly, unheard A slave to his cruel captivity [Chorus] Ohhh Flame's still burning, she's not learning Can't keep turning back Discarded memories, dusty thoughts Start to tease her [Bridge] It's all a game for him to play He drank deep and threw her away Diluting her No illusions now Cynicism neared his head And left his appetite unfed Alone, all his brilliant words are dead [Chorus] Ohhh Flame's still burning, she's not learning Can't keep turning back Discarded memories, dusty thoughts Start to tease her [Outro] He turned her world to black But she's stopped looking back Tattooed it all in black Discretion is the key To his reality And she feels now she's free So she chooses then and there To leave without a care She goes into the dusk As easy as a breeze No longer on her knees Her soul is now at peace
