How The Fire Started

Oh, you never gave a damn about me
Till I had something you needed, oh
What you may not understand about me
Is I won't hesitate to let you go

You had your chance to tell the truth
You knew the right thing to do, yeah

So, how can you turn and walk away from a fire you started?
I never owed you anything, no matter how you saw it
Blow your smoke as I go up in flames
Shame on me, thinking that you would save me
How can you turn and walk away from a fire you started?

Burn me down, burn me down, burn me down
Baby, that's how you leave me, ooh
You come around, come around, come around
And you tell me you need me

You had (had) your chance (chance) to tell the truth

So, how can you turn and walk away (oh-oh-oh) from a fire you started?
I never owed you anything, no matter how you saw it
Blow your smoke as I go up in flames
Shame on me, thinking that you would save me
How can you turn and walk away from a fire you started?

Oh, you never gave a damn about me
Oh, you know that's true
What you may not understand about me
Is I would never do the same to you

So, how can you turn and walk away (oh-oh-oh) from a fire you started?
I never owed you anything, no matter how you saw it
Blow your smoke as I go up in flames
Shame on me, thinking that you would save me
How can you turn and walk away from a fire you started?
