"Matches" lyrics

"Matches"

You said we'd talk
That ain't no way to leave it

I guess my drunk ass
Ruined your perfect evening

You swear it's my fault
If that's the way you see it
You'll see how far I can go

This fifth of jack
Is telling me to lose it

I tried my best
And now I'm thinking screw it

If I'm so bad
Well baby let me prove it
When you see the smoke

Matches don't start fire
Gasoline don't spill
All money just don't buy bullets
And triggers don't pull themselves

Chevy's don't drive drunk
Through the front of your house
Just know if I wake up behind bars and wire
Matches don't start fire

No sleep tonight
Girl you woke up a demon
You are the only reason
Now that everyone knows

Baby I wouldn't mind
If I got 20 to life
I might be holding the flame girl
But you're the fuse

Say I did it for love
When it's ashes and dust
You can lie to the judge
But you know the truth

I can't get you back
Guess I'll try getting even

The truth you'll find
