on Vineland past the candle shrine that melts into the street design

she waits - for someone

tonight she'll give herself away

she'll break apart all by herself

its so easy how we come undone

she pulls me in - strips me down

she pulls me in - turns me out

she pulls me in - strips me down

Outro: 4 chorus endings

will they burn for me?
