Lyrics

I’m talking about the time now when the tables turned on you
I found myself wondering just what am I going to do
I never thought I’d mind, but it was clear from the signs, I knew
That this was going to be a climb too high
(And I ain’t talking about no hill)

It developed over time and there was so much set to lose
I just couldn’t give up wanting you
You caught me on my blind side, it knocked me off my tilt
I was staring down a barrel, I was walking down the road to hell

I never thought we’d turn into monsters
I didn’t want a lot but I took so much
I look at you in ways no-one else can from a distance
I’m sure you look at me in those very same ways

The fire’s high, the fire’s low, the fire’s high, the fire’s low
I never thought that I’d end up next to you
The fire’s high, the fire’s low, there’s a fire burning out of control
I never thought that I’d end up next to you

Just biding my time now, waiting for the hammer to fall
Going to disappear and watch your demise
This is the time when the monsters turn on you
These feet are walking a new road
You never stood a chance at all
I never thought I’d end up next to you
