Flannel

You tore the fire

From my fingers

All the desire

It still lingers

Your face circuitous melody... I

Resent the memories

Thought it was new love;

Age-old fallacy

You were my weakness;

Still not my enemy

Crossing the crossroads

I smiled in relief

Don't look down, babe

It's too far gone

I was consumed

Lost myself in you

Don't look down babe

Let the past fade

I'm dropping my

Silver gown and wearing my crown

You were the torture

Haunting my brainstream

I jumped the high line

I'm finally free

Tearing my hard-twisted heartstrings

I let myself breathe

I drown in green eyes

And ill-earned jealousy

Thought I would capsize

But I found remedy

Flannel may still dance in my eyes

For a while

Don't look down, babe

It's too far gone

I was consumed

Lost myself in you

Don't look down babe

Let the past fade

I'm dropping my

Silver gown and wearing my crown

Don't look down babe

It's too far gone

I was consumed

Lost myself in you

Don't look down babe

Let the past fade
