Kerosene

Empty bottles on a dusty wooden floor A remedy I've tried too many times Echoes in my mind of Shouts and slamming doors I've done better with goodbyes Now the sun is heading back into it's grave It's a cold october night Taste the autumn air and hope to find a way To keep the dark out of my mind Kerosene, kerosene she lit me up She left me numb i call her kerosene Kerosene, kerosene she lit me up She left me numb i call her kerosene Light a candle as I lay me down to sleep Watch the room begins to glow Listen quietly to wind and rustling leaves In the silence I'm at home In my dreams I see her standing by the fire Granite eyes reflect the flames Humming softly 'til the embers start to tire A faded memory that I saved Kerosene, kerosene she lit me up She left me numb i call her kerosene Kerosene, kerosene she lit me up She left me numb i call her kerosene Mmm, mmm mmm, mmm Kerosene, kerosene she lit me up She left me numb i call her kerosene Kerosene, kerosene she lit me up She left me numb i call her kerosene --- Kerosene - Anson Seabra
