I'm drinkin' whiskey, you're sippin' Reposado
You ain't here with me, but by the bottom of the bottle
It'll all go south, south, south
What wind comes around, 'round, 'round
You ain't no angel, nah girl, I ain't no saint
We turn each other into something that we ain't
Swore you off like I always do
But somehow after midnight blue
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
Goin' half insane, shootin' down all the warnings
Shadow dancing on the bedroom wall
'Til your silhouette crawls on out in the mornin'
You baby, you, ain't nobody do it like
You baby, you, that's the cold hard truth
We feel the heat, but it don't burn the same
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
You said you hated me, I said, "I know you do"
Yeah, it's the same damn conversation with the sober you
You lie to all your friends, say, you ain't comin' through
This town would turn upside down if they only knew, me and you
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
Goin' half insane, shootin' down all the warnings
Shadow dancing on the bedroom wall
'Til your silhouette crawls on out in the mornin'
You baby, you, ain't nobody do it like
You baby, you, that's the cold hard truth
We feel the heat, but it don't burn the same
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
Dyin' flame, dyin' flame
You ain't no angel, nah girl, I ain't no saint
We turn each other into something that we ain't
Swore you off like I always do
But somehow after midnight blue
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
Goin' half insane, shootin' down all the warnings
Shadow dancing on the bedroom wall
'Til your silhouette crawls on out in the mornin'
You baby, you, ain't nobody do it like
You baby, you, that's the cold hard truth
We feel the heat, but it don't burn the same
We're throwin' matches at a dyin' flame
Dyin' flame
