Lyrics
Stop,drop and roll
(VERSE)
I strike the match.
Just to watch it burn and in an instant the smoke starts to blow away.
It could spread quickly.
If we don't watch it. Just like our emotions.
Always burning out of control.
Don't fan the flame.
Don't get burnt and if you get too close better stop,drop and roll.
(CHORUS)
We've gotta keep it contained and stop it from spreading.
As we go through the motions are we losing control?
I hope these clothes are indeed fire resistant or made of asbestos.
Are we losing control?
(VERSE)
But what about commitment?
Is this just desire?
I sense a resistance.
I don't want to get burned.
Don't be afraid. Don't get hurt and if you get too close better stop, drop and roll.
(CHORUS)
We've gotta keep it contained and stop it from spreading.
As we go through the motions are we losing control?
I hope these clothes are indeed fire resistant or made of asbestos.
Are we losing control?
I don't want to get burned again, it's so hard to let you in.
I'm not going to stop myself from feeling joy from being needed.
(BRIDGE)
The fire, desire burns deep inside.
The wire that ties her, can't get her out of my mind. I'm helpless exhausted and feeling all the heat. I'm breathless defenseless barely on my feet.
(VERSE)
Just like fire, emotions spread fast.
Given the right conditions.
You think new love will last.
But what about commitment?
Is this just desire?
I sense a resistance.
I don't want to get burned.
Don't be afraid. Don't get hurt and if you get too close better stop, drop and roll.
(CHORUS)
We've gotta keep it contained and stop it from spreading.
As we go through the motions are we losing control?
I hope these clothes are indeed fire resistant or made of asbestos.
Are we losing control?
I don't want to get burned again it's so hard to let you in.
I'm not going to stop myself from feeling joy from being needed.
